Kenya Coast Beach and Scuba Diving Holidays

Kenya’s 490 kilometre Indian Ocean coastline is one of the country’s main attractions. It offers a striking combination of Swahili culture, superb palm lined beaches and colourful marine life. The coral reef running the length of the coast protects the shoreline for swimming and watersports and offers good scuba diving.

Main areas of the Kenya Coast are:

Mombasa
Mombasa is the second largest city in Kenya and to its north and south it has some of the finest beaches Africa has to offer.

Well developed tourist areas around Nyali and Diani offer facilities for a first class beach holiday.

We also recommend hotels and beach lodges located in some of the less crowded areas and which have a more personal style. More...

Malindi and Watamu
Watamu is a small coastal town with a spectacular coral reef about two hours drive north of Mombasa. Twenty minutes further up the coast is the larger town of Malindi.

The centre of the town has a Swahili atmosphere but, outside of this, it is very much an international tourist resort. More...

Lamu Archipelago
Lamu Island lies just off the coast of northern Kenya. It has been a trading post between Arabia and India since the 1500’s, buying and selling spices, mangrove poles, ivory and, until the turn of the century, slaves.

All this has produced a wonderful and vibrant culture and a unique coastal people known as the Swahili.

There are no cars on Lamu, so all transport is on foot, donkey or dhow. More...
