What to do in Msambweni

Follow the scenic road down the south coast and you’ll arrive at Msambweni, one of Kenya’s most unspoiled and remote beaches. You could easily spend days soaking up the sun and the views in front of your chosen hideaway, but there is plenty to do as well. Hop aboard a traditional dhow and sail to Kisite Marine Park, which protects one of the largest and most vibrant coral reefs off Kenya’s coast. Dive amongst the spectacular marine life or snorkel overhead - you may just be joined by a pod of dolphins. As for watersports, enjoy a spot of kite or windsurfing, before retiring for a massage on the beach. On land, explore the rich Shimba Hills on a hike to the Sheldrick Falls or book a game drive and try spotting elephant, endangered antelope and multiple monkey species, and on a nocturnal excursion, leopards, cheetahs and various bushbabies.
