The place

About Diani Beach

White sand, warm water, and palm trees: the perfect wind-down after a Kenya safari. Diani sits on a 17km stretch of protected reef coastline, with kitesurfing in the afternoon winds and dhow sailing at sunset. It's a 1-hour flight from the Mara, making it the natural beach extension.
