This Kenya beach vacation will start with an arrival at Nairobi's Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. You will be met by a driver and his vehicle and transfer across town to the local airport: Wilson. Your flight to the coast isn't until 1400, so there is plenty of time to relax, hire a car and do some optional tours and have a bite to eat at the airport cafe, Monikos.

Day 2
Day at Leisure on the South Coast
Close
The Kenya Coast is a justifiably popular area - the tropical ocean laps the white sand, hidden by swathes of swaying palm trees. It's a gorgeous idyll perfect for relaxation, resting on Kenya's stunning Indian Ocean shoreline. You can spend your time here enjoying the sun, sand, endless water-sports, deep sea fishing, dolphin watching, five species of sea turtles, whale-back sharks, humpbacked whales and one of the world’s most varied coral reefs, or just relaxing with a good book.
