Web design, hosting & IT services in Lamu County

Lamu Old Town has been on the UNESCO World Heritage list since 2001, and it remains one of the best-preserved Swahili towns on the East African coast. Its narrow lanes have no cars, so donkeys and handcarts move goods, and dhows still carry passengers between Lamu, Shela, Manda and Pate. The Lamu Fort, the museum, carved wooden doors and annual events such as the Lamu Cultural Festival and Maulidi bring a steady flow of visitors.

The county is also changing. The first berths of the new Lamu Port, part of the LAPSSET corridor, opened in 2021 at Kililana on the mainland. Mokowe is the jetty town where the road from Garsen meets the boats, and Mpeketoni is a farming settlement growing maize, cotton and fruit. Fishing remains vital for families on Faza, Kizingitini and the other islands of the archipelago.

Most Lamu visitors arrive by plane at Manda airstrip after researching everything online: which guesthouse in Shela, which dhow captain, which restaurant on the waterfront. A guesthouse without a good website depends on agents and word of mouth. A craft workshop without one cannot sell to buyers abroad. We help Lamu businesses present their place well and take enquiries direct, working remotely from Nairobi.
