Conservation stories, community voices, research findings, and updates from Prawns Lake.

Every restored coastline begins with a community that chooses to act. Today, Prawns Lake Conservation Group joined hands with conservation partners, government agencies, community organizations, and local residents for a Mangrove Conservation Awareness and Tree Planting Day at Dongokundu. Together, we planted 1,500 mangrove seedlings a meaningful step toward restoring one of Kenya's most valuable coastal ecosystems. The event was about more than planting trees. It was about inspiring people to understand why mangroves matter and how every individual can contribute to protecting our environment.

Escape the Noise. Find Your Peace. There are places you visit. And then there are places that stay with you long after you've left. Prawns Lake is one of those places.

When people think about mangrove conservation in Kenya, they often picture rows of young mangrove trees growing along the coastline. But conservation is much more than planting trees. It's about restoring ecosystems. Supporting local communities. Protecting marine life. Creating sustainable livelihoods. And ensuring future generations inherit a healthier coastline. At Prawns Lake Watamu, every conservation activity is driven by one belief: When communities protect nature, nature protects communities.

Prawns Lake is both. Come for the sunset. Stay for the feeling. Return for the story.
