Local tip
Saturday evenings are best planned with a table request in advance, since dinner and the beach party form part of the same popular programme.

Papa Remo Beach is a beach club, Italian restaurant and pizzeria on Love Island Beach along Jacaranda Road in Watamu, Kenya. The setting combines a sandy beachfront with a relaxed daytime atmosphere, making the venue suitable for swimming, sunbathing and lingering over a meal by the water.

The kitchen focuses on Italian cooking, with wood-fired pizza, pasta and seafood among the central choices. The menu also includes grilled dishes, while the pizzeria provides a casual option for beach days and informal meals. Food is served alongside views of the lagoon and beach, with the setting shifting naturally from daytime dining to evening meals.

Day beds provide a base for guests spending several hours at the beach club. Sunbed reservations are available in different arrangements, including options with umbrellas. The beach-facing layout gives the venue an outdoor character throughout the day, while dinner can extend into an evening setting beneath the sky.

Saturday is associated with Papa Remo's regular beach party. The event brings music and dancing onto the sand, creating a livelier nightlife setting than the daytime beach club. Dinner can form part of the evening before the music begins, making the Saturday programme suitable for groups looking for a meal followed by a late beach gathering.

The venue works across several types of visit. Couples and friends can settle in for Italian food and drinks, groups can arrange a shared beach day or private area, and visitors staying in Watamu can combine a meal with time beside the water. The restaurant and pizzeria also offer a more straightforward dining option for guests who are not planning a full beach-club day.

Reservations are available for lunch, dinner and the Saturday beach party, with table requests confirmed by email. The venue also accepts enquiries by phone. Papa Remo Beach is located on Love Island Beach, with access from Jacaranda Road, and combines coastal dining, day beds and regular music events in one beachfront setting.
