Wasini Island

Wasini Island, located off the southern coast of Kenya near the small port town of Shimoni, is the first landmark you encounter as you venture into the Indian Ocean. This picturesque island boasts dramatic cliffs, lush vegetation, and towering baobab trees, all framed by the azure waters of the Indian Ocean. Despite its beauty, Wasini has a small population due to the lack of fresh water, which has limited development. As you leave Shimoni harbor, the island’s striking silhouette and the sight of waves crashing against its elevated coral walls create an unforgettable impression.
