🌊 Morning Marine Adventure – Snorkeling in Malindi Marine National Park

Your day begins at 7:00 AM with a convenient pick-up from your hotel in Malindi. After a short drive to the jetty, you’ll board a traditional dhow or motorboat and set sail toward Malindi Marine National Park, one of the oldest protected marine parks in Africa.
Once at sea, the vibrant world beneath the waves opens up. The park is renowned for its coral reefs teeming with colorful fish, sea turtles, and, if you’re lucky, even dolphins. Snorkeling gear is provided, and expert guides are on hand to help both beginners and experienced snorkelers make the most of the experience.
Whether you dive in or float above, the crystal-clear waters and thriving marine life offer a tranquil yet exhilarating start to your day.

🍽️ Lunch by the Sea – Coastal Flavors & Ocean Views

After your time in the water, head back to the shore for a well-earned lunch at a beachside restaurant. Set against the backdrop of the Indian Ocean, you’ll enjoy the region’s famous Swahili coastal cuisine, with freshly caught seafood, coconut-infused dishes, and tropical fruits.
Vegetarian options are also available, and you’re welcome to unwind as you sip a cool drink and take in the salty breeze.
This leisurely lunch offers a chance to relax and recharge before the second part of your adventure.

🏛️ Cultural Discovery – A Walk Through the Gedi Ruins

In the early afternoon, you’ll travel inland for a guided visit to the fascinating Gedi Ruins, a hidden archaeological treasure nestled in a coastal forest. Dating back to the 12th century, Gedi was once a thriving Swahili city, complete with stone houses, a palace, and a mosque.
Accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, you’ll explore this UNESCO-listed site, learn about ancient trade networks, and hear stories of the people who lived here hundreds of years ago. Monkeys chatter in the trees and butterflies flutter through the forest, adding to the mystical atmosphere of this historical site.
It’s a rare opportunity to step back in time and gain insight into the rich cultural heritage that defines Kenya’s coastal communities.

🌞 Beach Time – Relax or Play on Malindi’s Golden Sands

No visit to Malindi is complete without time to enjoy its world-famous beach. In the late afternoon, you’ll be dropped off at Malindi Beach, known for its soft golden sand, palm-fringed shoreline, and gentle waves.
Here, you’ll have time to unwind at your own pace — sunbathe, stroll along the beach, take a dip, or even try optional activities like kitesurfing or beach horseback riding. The calm, uncrowded atmosphere makes this an ideal stop to reflect on the day’s adventures.
