Kenya's
480 kms (300 miles) of Indian Ocean shoreline are endowed with sublime
white sand beaches, shady palm trees, warm waters for swimming and a colorful
chain of fringing coral reefs. On-shore breezes temper the heat and the
humidity. Temperature at the coast average between 27 - 31° Celsius
(81 - 88° F) perfect for enjoying the many water sports available
for beach-combing or for relaxing pool-side.
The coast has much to offer with a
variety of activities and water sports including exploring the underwater
marine world of the reefs that lie off its shores. The theme here is definitely
one of 'doing as much or as little as you like'.
From the coast to the plains, combination
of safari and beach makes a unique holiday experience. The strings of
islands that run up the Kenyan coast, the main ones being Wasini, Chale,
Lamu, Funzi Manda, Pate, Kiwayu and Mombasa itself are all worth a visit.
Apart from their beach and ocean attractions, most of them have some archaeological
interest which is also a constant theme on the mainland: the whole coast
is full of ruins fort, Mosques, tombs and even whole towns including Gedi
Ruins in Malindi. The beaches have the most beautiful coral reefs in the
world the three most spectacular zones, enclosed in Marine National Parks,
are far to the so
