Wasini Tour

This is a full day trip to the Kisite Mpunguti Marine National Park which is found off the Kenyan Coast about 50km south of Diani, near the Tanzania border. This breath-taking marine park offers some of the best snorkelling and diving in the world. You will be picked up from your accommodation at around 7.15 am and driven to Shimoni, a distance of 50kms, arriving at around 8.30 am. Upon arrival at Shimoni Jetty you will board an Arabic Dhow and sail to Kisite Marine Park where you can snorkel and swim. If you are lucky enough you can swim with the dolphins..

Besides being one of the best snorkeling and diving areas along Kenya’s coast, the waters around Wasini are home to two species of dolphins: the gregarious bottlenose dolphin and the more elusive humpback dolphin. Both dolphin species can be spotted in the vicinity of Wasini whereby the humpback dolphin is more likely to be seen very close to Wasini’s shore, and the bottlenose dolphin generally a bit more offshore. We also regularly spot sea turtles. On occasions, humpback whales can be seen while on their seasonal migration.

After snorkelling you head back to Wasini Island for a late lunch. This will truly be a meal to remember served by smiling Swahili ladies, with white wine and beer. After lunch you have time to relax over tea, coffee and patisseries! Arrive back at Shimoni jetty at around 4.00pm and be driven back to your accommodation.
