He said the government has liaised with global partners and developed protocols which shall be rolled out once borders are opened.

“We are working with WTTC to get the stamp or certification that our protocols are compliant internationally,” the CS said.

The CS was visiting Watamu Beach, located North of Mombasa City, a prime destination for beach Vacations in Kenya, to assess the impact of COVID 19 in the region, and celebrating the World Sea Turtle Day.

The pandemic has evidently shown that tourism is not about travel but everyone in the value chain including farmers, snake parks, and all other businesses that depend on the sector for survival, he said.
