About Diani Beach

White sand and reef

Kenya’s south coast, south of Mombasa

Diani Beach, on Kenya’s south coast, is a long ribbon of white sand and turquoise water backed by coral reef and coastal forest — the country’s best-known beach resort.

Days run from kitesurfing and diving to colobus forest, dhow trips and the Wasini marine park.
