SCENIC LANDSCAPE — KILIFI COUNTY
Hell’s Kitchen, Marafa
Hell’s Kitchen, Marafa is an inland landscape and viewing stop in Kilifi County. It is known for an eroded depression, pillars and unusual landforms. A story that a village sank because its inhabitants were extravagant is a local legend, not a verified geological explanation. The site is often combined with Che Shale or Robinson Island because relatively little else forms a full excursion there on its own.
