How They Dazzle Us
Kenya is a very special place, but for most people it is regarded as the land of Kilimanjaro and world-class safaris. Not many people associate it with beaches, and this is a major mistake. Nestled on the Indian Ocean coast, Kenya has some stunning beaches, none more so than this Landing, which is the only private island resort in Kenya. Surrounded by the aquamarine waters of the Indian Ocean, Chale Island is the place where comfort meets nature. Its secluded white beach, fringed by unspoilt coral reefs offers the chance to unwind in complete peace and privacy.

Why We Love Them
For a small and private island it is quite astounding how much wild-life there is to be seen. From birds and insects, through the curious and indigenous Colobus monkeys through to the sea itself which teems with an array of life so vast that you only need to wade out to knee height to see incredible colours. But there is a lot more to the ocean and you can windsurf, boogie board or stand-up paddle. There are great snorkelling trips to the reef or you can go deeper into the depths with an unforgettable scuba diving experience.

Their Sustainable Superpower
Aside from their obvious focus on conservation, the team behind this wonderful Landing are also highly focussed on making sure that the local communities benefit as much a possible from their presence. For example all cuisine served at the restaurants is sustainably sourced using local ingredients and fresh-caught fish. Another popular feature is the guided tours to the local fishing village where guests can meet and interact with the locals.
