East Africa is also a truly stunning beach holiday location. We have some of the finest white sandy beaches in the world. Be it the famous Spice Island of Zanzibar, the pristine islands of Mafia, Pemba or Mnemba in Tanzania. Or the beautiful Diani Beach in Kenya, Watamu with its outstanding rocks, the golden Bofa Beach in Kilifi or the secluded beaches on Manda Island & Lamu.
One can snorkel, dive the various coral reefs or simply relax and enjoy a variety of reasonably priced or high-end beach accommodations, perfect for relaxation after a long safari. You can hire a traditional dhow in Lamu and sail from one island to another! Enjoy a beach barbecue and nothing but turquoise blue water as far as the eye can see. Or get around Lamu island by donkey or by boat to explore the ancient ruins. You may want to Kite Surf on Kenya’s Diani or Che Chale beaches or simply chill in a beach cottage with a personal chef who does your shopping & cooking and feels like Robinson Crusoe. Fresh Coconut Water, spicy and yet sweet Swahili Dishes and the freshest seafood you can imagine are available to taste and devour
