Diani Beach Holidays: What to Book Locally

Diani's 17km of white sand is consistently rated among Africa's best beaches. Beyond the sand, the real magic is on and under the water.

Book a traditional dhow sail to the reef for snorkelling, a fresh seafood lunch on a sandbank, and — in season — a whale-shark or dolphin excursion. Local operators run these daily and offer far better value than hotel desks.

Combine Diani with an Amboseli or Tsavo safari for the classic Kenyan bush-and-beach itinerary.
