Overview
Marafa Hell’s Kitchen, is an odd sandstone canyon outside of Malindi, Kenya. Known locally as Nyari – “the place broken by itself”. Gigantic sandstone ridge worn by the elements wind, rain, and floods into a series of jagged gorges. The layer-cake colors of the sandstone reveal whites, pinks, oranges, and deep crimsons, making the gorge particularly striking at sundown, when tones of the ribbed sandstone gullies are highlighted and mirrored by those of the setting sun.
Tour Highlights
The excursion dedicated to Malindi, with its flavors and colors typically African. Shopping tour inside the Arab and Portugal influenced Malindi, one of the most fascinating areas known for its textiles, the local handicrafts made of wood or soapstone, batik and kikoi. Drive from Malindi town to the village is called Marafa, but its proximity to the biodiversity-rich Dakatcha woodlands is not its most outstanding feature. Hell’s Kitchen is an odd sandstone canyon that might be Kenya’s best kept-secret.

- This place is situated 40 km northwest from Malindi where you can see the amazing colours of the geological depression Marafa, called by the natives “Nyari” which literally means “the place that breaks alone ,” even though the real title which is better known this place is “the devil’s kitchen”.
