Dadaab is a semi-arid town in Garissa County, Kenya. It is the site of a large UNHCR base hosting 329,811 people in five camps as of October 2015, making it the largest refugee camp complex in the world. Dadaab is located approximately 100 kilometres (60 mi) from the Kenya–Somalia border. The nearest major town is Garissa, which is the headquarters of the North Eastern Province.
The Dadaab camps Dagahaley, Hagadera and Ifo were constructed in 1992. The more recent Ifo II and Kambioos camps were opened in 2011 after 130,000 new refugees, who fled Somalia due to severe drought, arrived. The Ifo II camp extension was originally constructed in 2007 by the Norwegian Refugee Council, in response to major flooding that destroyed over 2,000 homes in the Ifo refugee camp. However, legal problems with the Kenyan Government prevented Ifo II from fully opening for resettlement until 2011. As of August 2015, Hagadera was the largest of the camps, containing just over 100,000 individuals and 25,000 households. Kambioos, on the other hand, is the smallest camp with fewer than 20,000 refugees.

A photo journal of my travels through Kenya & Tanzania while on safari in February 2009. A special thanks to Rikki & Jack Swenson for their inspiration, instruction & patience. My life changing experience in East Africa was made possible by the dedicated guides of Micato Safaris and a wonderful group of travel companions.
Hell's Gate National Park, lying south of Lake Naivasha, in Kenya. The Park is popular with hikers and campers who can enter without a vehicle and move noiselessly past herds of zebra and gazelle. The park is flanked by imposing cliffs which lead to a narrow canyon containing hot springs and geysers. Hell's Gate attracts many Movie Makers. Parts of the movie "Tomb Raider II" staring Angelina Jolie was shot here. Several travel guides suggest biking through Hell's gate-realisticly-it's a nightmare! Those we saw biking were pushing their bikes through deep ruts of sand. There isn't much hard surfaces.
As I traversed the coastal region of Kenya i used the Matatu (Ma-three) form of public transport - its fun but be careful. It has continued to serve Kenya well
