Kenya's second largest town and its only port is an old but vibrant place, a mystical mixture of the ancient and modern. The picturesque town is built on an island and is attached to the mainland by two deepwater harbours. Mombasa town is a maze of narrow streets and pedestrian lanes with quaint shuttered houses and openfronted shops.

    What to Expect
     
      The Kenyan coastline stretches for 480 magnificent kilometers on either side of Mombasa.

    The coastal city of Mombasa is one of Africa's major tourist destinations, with some of the best beaches in the world. Located on Kenya's Eastern coastline bordering the Indian Ocean, Mombasa has become popular for its exotic beaches, diverse marine life, world-class hotels and friendly people.

    Mombasa's history dates back to the 16th century, and it has been ruled by the Portuguese, Arabs and British-which have all influenced the town's culture and the attractions that still exist including historical ruins such as Fort Jesus and the Old Town.

    Mombasa's beaches offer a host of activities for kids and adults alike such as deep-sea fishing and water sports. Tours of the town, safaris in game parks, and camping can all be planned through travel agencies within the city. Hotels also incorporate these activities as part of their entertainment, with the aim of making the trip to Mombasa the ultimate holiday experience!

    Complementing its diverse culture, Mombasa's restaurants offer an array of tastes sprinkled across the town. Delicacies include freshly-caught seafood-made to order on a dhow while you watch the sunset and hear the live band playing your favourite Abba song. Nightlife in Mombasa is always exciting, and the clubs and casinos can keep you going all night long.
    So when you next think of taking a vacation, doing some travelling, or simply having to enjoy yourself, think about Mombasa and all that it has to offer-we promise you'll have the time of your life!
