Make your Island experience amazing and unforgettable
Wasini Island is like the final pearl in the tropical beach necklace that stretches south on the town of Mombasa. Wasini is located 76 km south from the Likoni ferry crossing. It has tiny faded alleyways, Swahili fishing vibe and mottled trees. The Island boasts 5 km in length. The Island is full of ingredients necessary to give you a perfect beach hideaway. Wasini Island gives you a sit under the mango tree and do nothing vibe. The coastline is filled pockets of white sand and Kisite Marine National Park, the most stunning swimming reef on the coast. Funny enough, it is the only place that does not have electricity, traveler’s cafes, hostels or cars. Make a plan and visit this gorgeous Island for an experience of a lifetime.
