Description
English: Kinooni is a street that is located at Lamu old town Mkomani location, the place was named as Kinooni because people used to sharpen their knives and Pangas when going to their farms.

Lamu people have come up with a lot of myths about Kinoo such as:

People seeing chicks playing at Kinoo during the mid night. Also people claim to see a big frighten snake during the mid-night

Mahali hapo ni giza sana usiku na mchana. watu wa Lamu wanaamini kuwa mahali hapo hutokea miujiza kadhaa wakati wa usiku wa manane. Mifano ya miujiza ni kama:
