Swimming With Dolphins at Wasini; Only 55 kilometers from Diani Beach, experience the most well-liked snorkeling and diving boat safari in Kenya in the renowned Kisite Marine Park. Take a snorkeling or scuba diving trip in warm waters that are home to an incredible variety of fish and coral species, as well as dolphins, turtles, stingrays, moray eels, and other marine life. This is a full-day excursion to the Kisite Mpunguti Marine National Park, which is near the Tanzanian border and located off the coast of Kenya, about 80 km south of Mombasa.
You will board an Arabic dhow at the Shimoni Jetty and sail to Kisite Marine Park for swimming and snorkeling. You have a good chance of seeing dolphins on the drive to the park. Since dolphins are naturally amiable, you may get up close and personal with them as they come rather close to the boat. But since these dolphins really reside in the open ocean, it’s not a good idea to just dive in and swim with them. To your satisfaction, you may observe them as the captain and his crew follow them about.
With an amazing array of fish and coral reefs, Kisite is Kenya’s best and most easily accessible marine park. Snorkelers have had the good fortune to witness whales and whale sharks in the past. Before traveling back to Wasini Island to sample and experience a traditional and fresh Swahili seafood lunch, with chicken or vegetarian options also available for those who would prefer not eat seafood, you will have the opportunity to snorkel to your heart’s content at Kisite Marine Park.
