Things to Do in Diani Beach

High-Energy Water Sports
Diani Beach is known for its lively water sports scene with kitesurfing, windsurfing, deep sea fishing and diving on offer.
The Almanara properties we recommend here offer beginner lessons for kite and windsurfing, so even those new to the sport can enjoy the thrill.
For something less high octane, snorkelling is a great way to capture the vivid marine life in Kenya or avoid water altogether with horse riding and even yoga on the beach before settling down into a palm-fringed cabana.

Safaris and Wildlife
While the multi-day safari camps take place further inland, there’s still plenty of wildlife to explore on the coast for true nature enthusiasts.
The nearby Shimba Hills National Reserve provides an opportunity for travellers to spot elephants, giraffes, and other unique animals in their natural habitat. Perfect for a day trip if you want to break up your beach days.
Or if you’d rather stay put, the properties above are well placed to arrange private dolphin and whale shark spotting tours aboard a local dhow. The coral reef also provides excellent marine life viewing for snorkellers and divers.

Set sail and enjoy a picnic on one of the nearby islands, ideal for a bit of romance after an intrepid safari. It’s also a unique spin on experiencing Kenya’s culture by sailing on a local dhow, traditionally a trading boat, but now used for sailing, travel and even wildlife spotting.
