Lamu Airport is a small airstrip that serves flights to Lamu from Nairobi, Malindi, and Mombasa.
Lamu airport is located on Manda island just across the channel from Lamu Town. Facilities are very basic and include bathrooms and a small duty-free shop.
When your flight to Lamu arrives at Lamu airport, your hotel can arrange a boat or you can get a private boat transfer to Lamu island.
Even if you don’t book ahead, there are plenty of willing boat operators at the airport when every flight lands, so don’t worry about not finding transportation to Lamu.
Lamu airport is in the process of being modernized, and there is currently a building project underway to construct a more permanent structure.
