Dhow Cruise, Dolphin Safari, Wasini Lunch and Return
Wasini Full-Day Dolphin Safari.
Early morning pick-up from your hotel in Mombasa or Diani helps avoid traffic in Mombasa and at the ferry. Enjoy a scenic drive along the coastal road through Kwale County to Shimoni, which takes approximately 2.5 to 3 hours.
From Shimoni Jetty, board a traditional dhow boat for a cruise to Kisite Marine National Park. Spot playful dolphins along the way, with a chance to see them swimming in the wild. You will also enjoy snorkeling in the clear waters of Kisite Marine Park, known for its vibrant coral reefs and tropical fish. A glass-bottom boat option is available for non-swimmers.
In the afternoon, enjoy a Swahili-style seafood lunch on Wasini Island, with vegetarian meals available on request. Relax with island hospitality and ocean views, then continue with a short guided walk through Wasini fishing village.
You may also have an optional visit to the coral gardens or mangrove boardwalk, depending on the tides.
Later, return to Shimoni Jetty and sail back by dhow before driving back to Mombasa or Diani. Arrival is in the evening, followed by drop-off at your hotel.
