Discover the Magic of Kilifi County
Kilifi County is one of Kenya’s best-kept secrets, a place where time slows, dhows drift, and life takes on a gentle rhythm shaped by sea, sun, and Swahili heritage. Located along the North Coast between Mombasa and Malindi, Kilifi is more than a destination, it’s a feeling. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or connect with something deeper, there’s no shortage of things to do.
Sunset Dhow Cruise – The Soul of the Coast
Step onto a traditional Swahili dhow for an unforgettable sail across the kilifi waters. As the sun sets, casting golden reflections on the tide, you’ll float past mangroves and to Bird Island, home to hundreds of seabirds. Soft music, a coastal breeze, and a selection of Swahili snacks like mahamri, viazi karai, and seasonal fruits complete the experience. Duration: 3–4 hours
Jet Ski Adventures – Ride the Tide
For the thrill-seekers, feel the freedom of jet skiing across the Indian Ocean’s turquoise waters. This is perfect for a burst of adrenaline and fun.
Yacht Ride – Luxury on the Water
Set out on an exclusive yacht for a private one-hour coastal cruise. Great for celebrations, romantic gestures, or simply soaking in Kilifi’s beauty in style.
Snorkeling – Dive into Wonder
Just off the coast are coral gardens alive with marine life. We can arrange snorkeling trips with experienced guides — great for beginners and ocean lovers alike.
Mambrui Sand Dunes – Kenya’s Coastal Desert
Just beyond Malindi lies a surreal landscape of rolling dunes where golden sand meets the blue sky. Visit for sunrise or sunset and walk barefoot through soft, sculpted terrain. • Ideal for photography, quad biking, or just quiet wonder • Full-day guided trip
Hell’s Kitchen Marafa – Nature’s Masterpiece
