Ne confondez pas avec une autre proposition méda creek qui démarre au Shark crab restaurant Celle ci démarre d un petit village tout au bout de la baie. Le trajet est assez long depuis watamu et non compris. Le prix du transfert est plus élevé que la visite. Attention aussi à marée basse vous devrez faire un long chemin boueux dans la baie à l aspect lunaire pour retrouver une barque Les chants vous accompagnent souvent et c est le plus de cette expédition”
