Location: Diani Beach, Kwale County, Kenya.
Overview
Diani Beach is an idyllic stretch of beach that lies along the Indian Ocean on the coast of Kenya in eastern Africa. Many believe that Diani and adjacent Galu are the finest beaches in Africa. The beach stretches for about 10 kilometres long, from the Kongo river to the north and Galu beach to the south (the southern point of reference is an old Baobab tree). It is adjacent to the town of Ukunda, the population of which nears 100,000 inhabitants. For those jetting in on private planes or from Wilson Airport, a small airstrip is located between the beach area and the Mombasa-Lunga Lunga road just a few kilometres from Mzima House. The water remains shallow near shore, with some underwater sandbars near the surface which allow wading and shallow-water snorkelling with a clear view of the sandy bottom. Inland from the beach, there is extensive vegetation including numerous palm trees which cover the coastal areas naturally.
On the shores of the Indian Ocean, between an ancient winding river and an old baobab tree lie six miles of the most pristine beach in the world, Diani. Your beachside haven – Mzima Beach offers elegance and comfort, with every amenity you need for a soothing and fulfilling experience, and with spectacular view of the ocean teasing you from private luxury villas to group options.
