Malindi has a range of shops where most goods
can be bought (but probably at a price). Supermarkets are found
on the Harambee Road. The Italian influence is very clear with
the range of food and other items available. There are several
pharmacies, all the main banks and a main Post Office. Many Internet
cafes are available.The alternatives for craft shopping include
the Craft Market on the sea-shore. Bargains to be had, but lots
of hassle and bargaining involved. |

There is a Malindi Handicraft Co-operative
north of the town. Here prices are fixed. On the Harambee Road
there are many shops, some very upmarket, but with prices to
match. There is a good range of places to eat, with a wide variety
of prices. The Baobab on the sea front specialises in seafood,
Italian, African and curries. I Love Pizza as the name suggests
is Italian with pizzas, pasta and seafood. The Old Man and the
Sea offers seafood and steaks. |

Many of the hotels offer very acceptable
food, including the Driftwood which specialises in seafood and
a Sunday curry lunch. Along the Harambee Road there are a number
of bars and cheap places to eat.
Nightlife revolves around a couple of discos
including Club 28 and Fermentos and Casinos. |
