The Athi-Galana-Sabaki River is second longest in Kenya, at 390 km and is beloved of birdwatchers at its estuary. This is the best kept secret of the Kenyan North Coast, frequented by ardent birdwatchers and hydro experts recording the natural fight between fresh river water and sea water.
It gets its three names from the regions it flows through rising from Ngong outside Nairobi to the Coast. The river drains into the Indian Ocean 10 km north of Malindi town, at Sabaki.
