Crab Shack Restaurant, Watamu

Call Directions Website

Crab Shack Restaurant, Watamu Visit 'The Crab Shack' Dabaso at Mida Creek. The ideal place for a romantic meal, or snacks and drinks and watch the sun go down. Please book 24 hrs in advance.

Situated at Mida Creek, not far from Dabaso village, the restaurant is a discreet, low impact wooden construction standing at the edge of the mangrove forest with panoramic views of the Creek. Access to the restaurant is via a 200 metre boardwalk, which gives guests a unique opportunity to absorb the beauty and magical atmosphere of the mangrove forest and Creek channels. The restaurant looks out to stunning views of Kirepwe Island and also provides a good spot for bird watching. The restaurant offers breakfast, lunch and dinner. Those guests arriving for dinner are recommended to come early and enjoy a sundowner as the sun dips spectacularly over the Creek. The local special menu includes delicious fresh fish, prawns and crab dinner cooked by trained chef Alfred. Soft drinks, wines and beers are also available. The crabs are farmed as part of another DCC eco initiative and the fish are caught by local Creek fishermen. Eating out here really does support the local community and all profits go towards DCCG and conservation activities! Guests can also pay a small fee for a guided tour of the boardwalk without having a meal. Visitors to Watamu can support DCCG's other activities: We involve the local community in practical conservation, environmental education and awareness and sustainable management of the natural resources. Towards this aim, we organise mangrove plantings and beach clean-ups and have initiated several income generating activities including beekeeping, selling mangrove tree seedlings and crab fattening. There is literally no place else on earth quite like Crab Shack so join us for a truly unique dinning experience!

There's is something special about Watamu in the low season...🌊🌊✨️

The air feels calmer, the views stretch wider, and every moment becomes more personal. At Crab Shack, this is when you truly experience the magic-no rush, no crowds, just uninterrupted ocean views, fresh seafood straight from the ocean, and sunsets that feel ike they were made just for you.

Take a slow canoe ride through the mangroves, unwind with your favourite drink in hand, and let the peaceful rhythm of the ocean set the tone. This is not just dining it's an escape, a quiet luxury, and a chance to connect with nature in its purest form.

If you've been waiting for the perfect time to visit... this is it 🦀🌅
