The Watamu Marine Association (WMA) is a non-governmental organization based in Watamu, Kenya, dedicated to the conservation of the coastal and marine ecosystems along the Kenyan coastline. Founded with the goal of protecting the rich biodiversity of the area, the WMA focuses on sustainable marine practices, environmental education, and community-based conservation initiatives.

Watamu is home to the Watamu Marine National Park and Reserve, one of the most ecologically important marine areas in East Africa, featuring vibrant coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangrove forests, which are vital habitats for a wide array of marine life, including endangered species such as sea turtles and dugongs. The WMA plays a central role in preserving these delicate ecosystems through efforts such as marine life monitoring, coral restoration, and reducing the impacts of unsustainable fishing practices.

The association also works closely with local communities, promoting sustainable livelihoods and raising awareness about the importance of marine conservation. It collaborates with government agencies, international NGOs, and local businesses to support initiatives that balance ecological preservation with community development. Through outreach programs, educational workshops, and eco-tourism activities, the Watamu Marine Association fosters a deep understanding of marine conservation among both locals and visitors, ensuring that the region’s natural treasures are protected for future generations.
