Mombasa Island<\/p><\/div>\n
Mombasa is the largest city on the Kenyan coast and combines city excitement with beach relaxation. The coastal area features nearly 500 kilometres of tranquil white beaches, golden sand dunes, warm aqua water and idyllic secluded islands. The beaches are one of the main attractions and the coral reefs offer some of the best diving in Kenya. Here’s our guide to the main beaches at the beautiful coast.<\/p>\n
Diani Beach<\/strong><\/h3>\n![\"Diani](\"https:\/\/www.somak.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/IMG_5836.jpg\")
Diani Beach<\/p><\/div>\n
One of Kenya’s best beaches – think white, soft, powdery sand with a backdrop of aqua hues from the glistening turquoise water, surrounded by green and lush vegetation. Diani is a stunning destination for a beach escape!<\/p>\n

Turtle Bay<\/p><\/div>\n
Watamu beach has an enormous coral reef, perfect for those that love to snorkel or scuba dive. If you’re lucky you may see sea turtles nesting on a stretch of the beach close to the reef.<\/p>\n

Malindi Dream Garden<\/p><\/div>\n
Malindi beach, known as ‘Little Italy’ due to the large population of Italian tourists, is adjacent to Watamu beach. Popular during the deep-sea fishing season and for water sports enthusiasts, it is a perfect all-year destination to snorkel, waterski and scuba dive.<\/p>\n
We recommend staying at:<\/p>\n

Kizingo<\/p><\/div>\n
Lamu is known as the land of dhows. Dhow sailing is a cultural tradition on Lamu Island and the locals even hold an annual competition!<\/p>\n
We recommend setting sail to watch the sunset in the deep sea, or cruise all the way to the marine park to snorkel and swim with dolphins if your timing is right, or you can go on an excursion to view the ruins of Takwa.<\/p>\n
