Spectacular sunsets
Nothing beats the ephemeral beauty of that killer sunset at the end of the day but guess what? Killer sunsets are not commonplace. Just because it is the same sun does not mean the sunsets are all the same! You need an outstanding vantage point and Distant Relatives offers several of those. Whether it’s down at the private beach, off the deck of a dhow while having sundowners or over the forest from the lodge. The allure is irresistible

Romantic Creeks
Picture this: It is a warm evening and you and your loved one are seated on the beach cuddling close and playfully in your Maasai blanket. The overlooking view? A perfect moon on the sky, its reflection playing calmly against the ocean’s soft ripples. As the evening rolls on, the moon slowly disappears and the dark night sky takes over. Suddenly you realize mother’s natures beauty and magnificence as luminescent bio plankton slowly start rising to the ocean’s surface, taking over where the moon left off, blanketing the ocean with the most beautiful yet natural blue shimmer as they playfully swim. Get the picture? Good! Because it gets better.
