The image depicts a crowded coastal scene in Shanzu ward, Kenya. In the foreground, two dark-skinned individuals are wading through shallow water towards the viewer. A taller male, appearing to be an adult or older youth, is bare-chested and wears light-colored shorts, with water reaching his mid-thigh. He holds the right hand of a young male child. The child wears a blue and white striped long-sleeved shirt and light-colored shorts; he carries a black, tire-shaped inflatable ring in his left hand, and water reaches his mid-calf. The seabed visible beneath the clear-to-murky water is sandy and extensively covered with dark green aquatic vegetation, resembling seagrass or algae. In the mid-ground, a white boat with a canopy is positioned slightly left of center, surrounded by multiple individuals wading in the water. Numerous other figures are scattered across the distant water, suggesting a busy recreational area. The sky above is overcast and light grey, meeting the water at the horizon.
