The Floating Bar
Apart from the expensive hotels in Shela and Manda, there are few other places on the island where the middle-class can enjoy a drink or have a nice meal. These include the floating bar.
The bar, which is located in the middle of the ocean channel about a kilometre from Shela and Lamu Old Town, remains one of the unique and secluded places where visitors can enjoy their drink and good food.
