What you can expect
Escape to one of Kenya's most spectacular marine destinations on this unforgettable full-day adventure to Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park, a protected marine reserve renowned for its crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and abundant sea life. Sail aboard a traditional Swahili dhow, snorkel among colorful tropical fish, and enjoy a delicious seafood lunch overlooking the Indian Ocean on Wasini Island.
Your day begins with an early morning hotel pickup from your hotel followed by a scenic drive to the historic fishing village of Shimoni. Here, you'll board a traditional wooden dhow and cruise across the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. Keep your camera ready as playful dolphins are frequently spotted swimming alongside the boat, while sea turtles may also make an appearance during the journey.
Upon reaching Kisite Marine Park, you'll enjoy guided snorkeling at some of the park's best coral reef sites. The warm, shallow waters are home to an incredible variety of marine life, including butterflyfish, angelfish, parrotfish, clownfish, octopus, rays, and vibrant coral gardens. Whether you're a first-time snorkeler or an experienced swimmer, professional marine guides will ensure a safe and enjoyable experience, with quality snorkeling equipment provided.
After your underwater adventure, continue to beautiful Wasini Island, where you'll savor a freshly prepared Swahili-style lunch at a scenic cliff-top restaurant. Feast on freshly caught seafood such as fish and crab, accompanied by coconut rice, chapati, tropical fruits, and refreshing Kenyan tea or coffee. Vegetarian and chicken options are typically available upon request.
Before returning, you'll have time to relax, admire the breathtaking coastal scenery, and experience the island's laid-back atmosphere. In some itineraries, there's also an opportunity to take a short walk through Wasini Village or explore the surrounding mangrove ecosystem before boarding the dhow for the return journey to Shimoni and your transfer back to to your hotel
