Beautiful coral reefs at Kisite-Mpunguti Marine National Park Kenya

Just off the coast of Wasini Island, near the Tanzanian border, lies the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine National Park. To reach this stunning destination, you’ll need to arrange a trip with one of the many traditional dhows in Shimoni town. The journey takes about two hours if your boat is slow, but along the way, you might be lucky enough to spot dolphins.

Be mindful that once you leave the harbor, the large, rolling waves of the Indian Ocean can cause seasickness if you’re not accustomed to open water. However, upon reaching the Marine Park, a fascinating underwater world awaits. Dive just a few meters below the surface to experience its vibrant marine life and coral reefs.
