Beach Overview: Mombasa, Kenya
Kenya's premiere beach destination, Mombasa's north and south coastlines have attracted European vacationers for years, and are now home to Kenya's best array of lodgings for every taste and budget. While Americans may only think of Kenya for safaris, other nationalities have caught on to the sparkling warm waters, stunning reefs, and powdery sands of the Indian Ocean off the eastern coast of Africa. Baboons and monkeys inhabit the seaside jungles, and Kenya's impressive wildlife refuges are close by: One of the country's largest and oldest parks, the Tsavo National Park, is an easy add-on to any beach resort stay. The parks are full of a diverse range of habitats—mountains, forests, lakes, and grasslands—and home to rhinos, lions, leopards, crocodiles, waterbucks, kudu, ostriches, zebras, and some of the largest herds of elephants in Kenya. The ocean itself is full of wonders too, including exotic sharks you can get up close to on Whale Shark Excursions. Many sea reserves and marine parks lie off the coastline, including the popular Mombasa Marine National Park and Reserve.
