Scuba Diving In Mombasa; The coral reef on the Kenyan coastline spans a distance of 143 miles (230 kilometers) from Shimoni to Malindi. They are only momentarily interrupted by inlets for the rivers and creeks of Mombasa Island and Kilifi. Additionally, the canals on either side of the island represent the deepest and most sheltered seas. You reach the second-largest barrier reef in the world and some of the world’s most pristine diving spots in just twenty minutes after leaving the beach!
Mombasa Marine Park is a must-see dive destination in Kenya, which is ranked among the top three dive sites worldwide. The most well-liked scuba diving adventures include reef dives, night dives, and wreck dives. You can schedule a single or double dive trip every day. You will undoubtedly observe a vast abundance of aquatic life during every dive, from the tiniest damselfish to dolphins or even sharks, because Mombasa Marine Reserve is one of many where fishing is prohibited, ensuring that marine life is not threatened and that its numbers stay strong.
Coral reefs are home to almost a million different kinds of aquatic life. Fish use a variety of shapes and colors to blend in with their surroundings and evade predators. We suggest wreck diving on the MV Dania, which was sunk specifically for wreck penetration, as well as drift and night dives for more experienced divers. Only experienced divers are advised to dive at MV Dania, which has a depth range of 82 to 115 feet (25 to 35 meters). From Coral Gardens, which is 23 feet (7 meters) deep, to Kasa, which is 32 to 65 feet (10–20 meters), novice divers can dive at a variety of locations.
