The 30 best things to do with kids in Mombasa

It's really an insightful visit. Especially with the guides who take the tour groups and give detailed narration about the facility and how the animals got placed there. Fun fact I didn't know crocodiles can stay without eating for 3 months. Best part of the tour is the viewing the feeding of the crocodile, hippos and giraffes. This usually takes place from 3pm-4.30pm.

Great place to experience the wild in a protected spaces, reptiles, Giraffes, Hippos, Fish, butterfly, snakes . The eco system is so natural, yet well protected. It's great for all age groups. I recommend it as a must visit place for those visiting Mombasa. It's worth it

Mid Aug 25. 2200 ksh and passed by only kid ticket? Entrance was being torn down and ticketing was by guy under the tree with table. No map or brochure about it at all. Expecting better for the price, as it was almost 10 times what locals pays. And the most interesting was the blueballs monkeys and not even the animals were supposed to be.

Its a nature walk experience. Kinda like a zoo but the some animals are free to move around. It has a strict schedule if you want to enjoy the whole experience. Thats following the feeding times. You feed the giraffes. But the hippos and crocodiles are fed so you get to see them out of the water. The park also closses early so you need to plan your time well.

Home of nature. Get there At 11AM for giraffe feeding and also at 4PM for Crocodile, Snakes and Hippos feeding. You will be awed by the beauty.

Nice place to see giraffe and feed the. Also good to see deer , giant tortoise, crocodiles, reptiles, butterfly park etc

It is an interesting place to visit. I enjoyed watching the giraffe feed, tortoise walking on the grass and the huge crocodiles skimming on their cages pools. However, I did not get to see the hippos and the buffalos. I am happy about the rehabilitation of Bamburi quarries into a tourist attraction center. Haller park made my Mombasa worth every coin.

My expectations let me done You'll feed fish and swim in the ocean. In the park you'll also see a variety of sea creatures. The best time to travel is 10 AM to 1 PM with low tides.

very convenient place for family members in Mombasa. it was crowded when I passed it by. intimate and peaceful atmosphere.

Beautiful ocean with so much fish. My kids swam and the divers helped them manoeuvre. Pros, the divers were polite and have all life jackets sizes, cons, the boat looked a little bit dilapidated. I'd have preferred a newer looking boat, but apparently there's a lineup to be followed. Regardess it was a lovely experience.

Activities offered snorkeling, swimming in the ocean and seeing fish under the glassboat. Good experience for both adults and kids

This is an experience one needs to try out when they visit Mombasa. You pay for the permit which is really affordable and then pay for the boat ride which is about 1000 kshs per person (after negotiating). The gents in charge are so kind and I suggest you carry some kshs for a tip. It's really safe and you are given a life jacket. You can even swim if you would like to.

Beautiful breach which is less crowded unlike pirates, unfortunately there are no food vendors but you will find camel rides, boat rides to the coral reef, see star fish and get a chance to swim and feed the fish along the coral reef. Safety is guaranteed. The only setback is there is vehicle accessible entrance to the beach. You have to leave your car on the road about 1Km away. I got lucky and used the Serena gate and the staff were generous enough to permit me to use their parking and access the marine park from their hotel. I bought drinks from their hotel as a way of saying thank you.

I definitely enjoy my visits here,the coral is beautiful and the 🐟 🐠 amazing. Feeding them is the best part. You should definitely make a visit and ask for Captain Mohammed or Captain Yahya very professional. Also you can hire a huba cat with Captain Shawn 👌 and experience the best ride. Marine Park services are very professional and accommodative

It's such a nice place to visit in Mombasa. You'll learn a lot of historical facts especially about Oman and Arabs in general. It also has a spectacular view of the Indian Ocean.

Some vivid history lessons on kenya's coast & how it's influenced us as a society. Be sure to get a guide from the museum, they quite informative.

A must-visit historical landmark in Mombasa! Fort Jesus is one of those places that truly makes history come alive. Walking through its ancient corridors, stone walls, and passages gives you a real sense of what coastal life and trade looked like centuries ago. The cannons, architecture, and carvings have been remarkably preserved, and the ocean views from the upper sections are simply stunning — especially at sunset. I highly recommend taking a guided tour; the guides are very knowledgeable and share detailed stories about the Portuguese, Omani, and British periods, as well as the role Fort Jesus played in protecting Mombasa’s harbor. The Passage of the Arches and the wall engravings were among my favorite spots. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site for a reason — full of culture, heritage, and insight into Kenya’s coastal history. Definitely worth a visit for both locals and tourists.

The expérience at Fort Jesus Museum is worth witnessing.... I'm going share a summary of what it is about Fort jesus is a Portuguese fort in Mombasa, Kenya, Built between 1593-1596, UNESCO World Heritage site since 2011. It Showcases Kenyan coastal history, culture, and Portuguese influence.Features exhibits on Swahili culture, maritime trade, and the fort's history. This is a must visit for history buffs and those interested in East African heritage! A lover of history, you would love it

This place has so much of our history. It's a good activity to do while in Mombasa. But from the vendors and enjoy yourself if you live history

Its not such a big thing everybody makes it out to be...the old way of agriculture and history were interesting. If you go, let a tour guide take you but just keep in mind that he needs to get paid afterwards...set payment rate before he takes you. He arranges Entrance fee and also takes you to elephant tusks and old town.(reason I add those photos as well)

Your experience will depend on your guide. You’ll have a West African vibe, but a different story. The fight that went on here with Oman, British and Portuguese is just thrilling. Try to read a bit about the history before you come.

The experience was good. It is a one time experience kind of thing. You wouldn't want to visit again. Most of the crocodiles are in hibernation mode so they barely move. I would recommend you to ask ahead of time and visit during feeding time. They do have snakes too and you do get to hold a 2yr old small crocodile. The pathway is accessible to elder people too and there is a seating space once you reach the enclosure compound.

Great rides for the kids, decent prices and duration of the rides were amazing. Sarah kitheka is a great host

Loved. Loved. Totally loved this experience! Our guide was not only very friendly, but she also discussed so many facts and interesting new learnings about crocodiles and the other repriles they had, with me and my kids as well. It was lovely to watch my children's interest grow, and even after 1.5 hours, they still wanted to learn. I totally recommend Mamba Village. Only caveat is that the structures are old and not so well maintained but this does not take away from the learning experience.

Adventure. The crocodiles (mamba) will definitely catch your eyes and they're beautiful ❤️👌

We were lucky with the very friendly and informative guide Cynthia. Nevertheless, the parc is old and Big Daddy was not there. Wonder if he even still lives. Still saw a lot of crocs and some snake. Ok go there if you have some spare hours, certainly not a ‘have to see’

Plenty of crocodiles to see and a few snakes. Would recommend a visit if you have kids. 350 ksh per adult resident rate. Payment by card or M pesaro only - no option to pay by cash. Child buggy cannot be taken on trail as it is uneven and bumpy. Cafe available on site for hard and soft drinks. Staff and guide were friendly and helpful Takes about 30-40 minutes to do a round visit. Good experience overall. There is Opportunity to touch or carry a baby Croc and the snakes if you like. In terms of feedback- the snake area needs to be updated and better maintained Containers were dirty. Phone Numbers on Google were not working suggest an update be made.

It was a great experience to see 300+ crocodiles together. The lady guide named synthiya was amazing 🙏🙏 . Once you are in Mombasa you must visit mamba village. The suggestion to mamba village is to improve cleanliness.rates are 350 for residents & 800 for non resident 👍

Loved everything about the place. Shout out to Shariff, he really helped us with our luggage. Generally, it's a good place for both adults and kids. You gotta try it. Get there early to have more fun The yellow dark slide, crazy slide that one😅 Be ready to scream the first time Their staff are amazing too. Great place all in all

The place is good though not as my expectations. It looked great on video. Less activities, hiegen issue around the washrooms. Customers should be prompted to take shower before the use the activities.

Amazing place to spend time with family. The slides will get you a good adrenaline kick.

It was an holiday despites the fact I arrived late I really enjoyed the place kindly try to be there one day I recommend the wild waters catch you covered for enjoyment

Totally wort a visit. Especially on a rainy day in October. We had the whole place almost for our self. No queuing.

My experience was good. The last time I was at Wild Waters was in 2012, and the place brought back old memories. Although the slides can get a bit dry and cause the floaters to move, I had an incident. Luckily, the lifeguard, Eric Kioko, reacted quickly—shoutout to him!

One of the attractions of the North Coast Mombasa. Tucked away within Nyali is the wild waters water park. This is a must do if you are taking kids to Mombasa. A whole day's activity for the kids and adults as well. School holidays can have huge numbers however it's worth the wait. The steps to get to the slides will provide you with a good work out.

If I could give zero stars to this place! I would! I have never been treated with such disrespect. We ordered food that we DID NOT get and then they forced us to pay or they called the police. The owner was an absolute disgrace. Tourists PLEASE BE WARNED! This place is horrible the food is bad and overcooked, the prices for rides are extremely overpriced. I really hope this business ceases to operate here, because from the terrible food and customer service they do not deserve to be operational. Many of the rides are broken and the wait for everything is extremely long in the heat. I hope another place opens and this one closes. They have a terrible system with the GoKarts and are simply trying to steal from their customers. I will be making more reviews of this place. UPDATE: since the “owner” has responded in a very immature and inappropriate fashion. I will continue to admonish people to stay away. The owners response to my initial review clearly demonstrates how disgraceful this place is and they absolutely have no consideration for the quality of their place and customer satisfaction. Please proceed with caution and use this discourse as more reason not to attend. I will work tirelessly to ensure people are not treated this way. Absolutely reprehensible behavior

We often come here with our staff and also with our drivers who received their German work permits. I have been visiting since 2005, and every single time the experience has been excellent. Never once have I had a reason to complain. It’s truly unbelievable how Go Kart Shanzu has managed to maintain such a high standard for so many years.

Affordable and good fun. They allow kids as young as 3 year to drive with assistance. 10mins ride costs 900/- per child. Safety gear was provided and pre driving instructions were clear. A footwear was provided ( make sure you have your own socks!) We went at 7pm, lights were not the best but did the job. Track is around 500M and cars are decent. Adults pay 1800/- for 10mins. Track and lap records are shared at the end. This was one of the more affordable go kart venues I have been to. There is a restaurant and kids play area as well.

The grilled fish was undercooked and probably one of the worst I’ve ever tasted. The salami pizza was also disappointing. I wouldn’t recommend this place for food, but it’s worth visiting for the fun activities. Respond to your comment: Reviews like mine are meant to help improve the experience for everyone, and I believe it’s important to be honest about what stood out and what could be better. The least I expect in return is an acknowledgment of the feedback and a commitment to improving rather than shifting focus elsewhere. I hope my review can contribute to positive changes.

My visit to Mombasa Go-Kart and Adventure Park with my family and friends was an absolute blast from start to finish. From the moment we stepped foot into the park, we were greeted by an atmosphere buzzing with excitement and anticipation. The park's layout is well-designed, with a variety of activities spread out in a spacious and picturesque setting. We started off with the go-kart racing, and let me tell you, it was an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride like no other. Zooming around the track, competing against each other, and feeling the wind rush past us was an exhilarating experience that left us all grinning from ear to ear. What truly sets Mombasa Go-Kart and Adventure Park apart is its diverse range of activities. After our intense go-kart races, we decided to tackle the adventure course. From rope bridges to zip lines, cargo nets to climbing walls, the obstacle course provided a perfect blend of challenge and fun for both kids and adults alike. It was fantastic to see everyone pushing their limits and cheering each other on as we conquered each obstacle. Throughout our visit, the park staff were friendly, attentive, and dedicated to ensuring our safety and enjoyment. They provided clear instructions before each activity and were always on hand to offer assistance or guidance whenever needed. Their professionalism and enthusiasm added to the overall positive experience of our visit. One of the highlights of the day was the picnic area where we took a break to refuel and recharge. The park provides ample seating and shaded areas, making it a perfect spot to relax, enjoy some snacks, and soak in the vibrant atmosphere. We appreciated the cleanliness and upkeep of the facilities, which further enhanced our enjoyment of the day. Overall, our time at Mombasa Go-Kart and Adventure Park was nothing short of fantastic. It's the perfect destination for families and groups of friends looking to spend quality time together in a fun and thrilling environment. Whether you're a daredevil seeking adventure or simply looking to unwind and have a good time, this park has something for everyone. We left with unforgettable memories and a newfound appreciation for the thrill of adventure. We'll definitely be back for more adrenaline-pumping fun in the future!

Good experience with 2 secs off the record, the track is amazing though the karts are rough. Staff helpful. Long wait times upto an hour on the weekend. They provide spare covered shoes if you come in sandals.

Good place, a bit run down but generally good. Well priced compared to similar spots in Kenya.

Quiet, clean, warm, beautiful. Local beach with few tourists. The sand is magnificent, brilliant white that doesn't get hot. The water was warm and the waves were perfect for all ages. Yeah there is a few sellers and camel owners at the beach, but they are not overly exhausting or unfriendly. Just be polite, say no and enjoy the Indian ocean by sunset. Magical.

It's a good chill out space if you want to experience the sea breeze, the ocean view, see the speed boat riding and for swimming. However, it's overcrowded in holidays

A great beach, plenty of things to do..nice bars to sit, relax and watch the world go by.

The beach is just fine with coast guards and security personnel around so enjoying swimming and sports activities at the beach is safe. Restaurants at the place to are great offering the best seafoods sports equipment such as the speed boats and other stuffs. I recommend it.

Safe beach to relax, lifeguards are observant and local snacks available, camel or boat rides at fair prices. The beach needs a little clean up of washed up water plants

It's very clean and less congested. One can enjoy themselves in the ocean. Walking around before the water begins to return back This is jetskis, dhow riding for deep sea fish expeditions at a cost.

Great experience, public beach with nice coconut trees. No need to go to hotel, it is accessible to everyone. Nest time is from 3 to 8, it is nice during the night. (Our experience was safe)

I took the very informative tour and it lasted for maybe 25 minutes. They’re definitely isn’t a lot of butterflies because they only live for a few weeks. And the organization is having a hard time getting farmers to give the foundation the cocoons. Farmers would rather sell the cocoons and make money. If you do go inside, be sure you bring mosquito repellent. I was eaten alive.

Excellent Place. I went there with two little girls, it was a mesmerising experience for them with all the beautiful butterflies and shining pupae. It's a place to get a practical explanation of the life cycle of insects. Ideal for kids and adults alike.

Learned a lot and was worth a visit. Not that kind of a tourist attraction which is great!

Educating place, but need to improve, little butterflies here, maybe because of the local raining season, gifts shop available.

A magnificent place to learn about butteflies and conservativation. It is very affordable too. Book a trip there and have fun with these beautiful creatures

It's a beautiful sanctuary for butterflies which I found really helpful in conservation. I also got to see tortoises.

Indeed butterflies are self-propelled flowers, and in the cool wafting breeze of the pristine ocean breeze, adjacent to the Fort Jesus, is a home to tropical butterflies’. Mombasa Butterfly house holds innumerable butterflies of their magnificent kind. Their easy sweeps in the space and their majestic perches inspire a sense of tenderness, and strong will to live. It is at the butterfly house I penned this verse. I write of hearts, souls, life and essence Grandiose, majesty and quintessence Butterflies and life changes Metamorphosis and second chances I write for dreamers Those out of cocoon, the weavers Those of flaming dreams, mediocrity hate Who struggle and don't blame fate Who break chains to live Those who forgive And find in all things the goodness it brings Who have given their audacity wings Those who believe can fly like a butterfly.

It’s clean and plenty of parking serving you with perfect view and breeze,very friendly to kids as there are many activities for kids

The scenes are breathtaking. The likoni channel gives it the Aura. Not to mention the golf course (though exclusive)... Security provided for crowd control during events though need a refresher course on how to handle civilians. That is however a NPS (national police service) short coming. The most recent Tourism event was breathtaking. The rich culture and the carshow dominated the day.

A nice relaxing with cooling breeze from the ocean. Has beautiful of the ocean mixed with ferry cruising from one end to the other

Cool breeze Beautiful place to relax and enjoy the beautiful ocean.

Excellent view at lunch break to feel the sea breeze and watch 🚢 waiting to enter port of call KPA

Mama Ngina Waterfront. It is a Mombasa Coronation Driveway version, unique in it's own essence and historic by nature. The driveway cuts across the coronation linking the famous Likoni Ferry crossing and Mombsa Statehouse. On one side it faces the Likoni channel that links with the vast open Indian Ocean. It highly frequented by visitors both local and foreigners that come to enjoy the open sea breeze as the sip fresh Coconut 🥥 drinks (Madafu) and Fried Cassava Crisps (Kachiri) that isusuallys served with hot powdered chili 🌶 Masala, Salt and either lemon 🍋 or Tamarind.. There are alot of fun activities from camel 🐫 back rides or Horse 🐎 back rides.. For photograghers it is an ideal place to capture both, sun rise and sunset scenery against the back drop of the gigantic Baobab Trees adorning the area.

Lots of food stalls, close to the beach, good vibes watching ships pass by, there’s also a mosque there. Dope vibes

My partner and I just finished an amazing guided birdwatching tour this morning! We booked it pretty late the day prior, but they were incredibly accommodating. Our guide Omar was so knowledgeable about all the birds in the area, and had eyes like a hawk that spotted even the smallest of birds. He was fantastic, and I wish we had more time in the area to come back again! I didn’t take many photos since I only had my phone camera, but do suggest bringing a set of binoculars!

I had such an amazing experience at this Nguuni late last year. The place provided a serene environment to unwind, picnic and also share an intimate experience with the wild. The place is far from the main gate so i recommend using personal vehicle for easy accessibility or also you can always use local tuktuks.

The sanctuary is a great spot for a picnic, games, or just relaxing. The roads are a bit rough, so it’s best to plan ahead for a car or tuk-tuk. It was amazing to see giraffes and ostriches up close. This is a wonderful place to visit, as long as animal safety measures are properly observed. I hope the sanctuary takes steps to ensure the protection of these animals.

Oh wow. Hidden gem of a place. 1000 shillings for foreigners and 400 for residents. Maybe a 20 minute walk to the picnic/viewing area with shaded huts to sit and watch. At first it was about 5 oryx antelopes that wandered out. Then the two guides got the herd of giraffes to appear. They were all very tame and comfortable eating around the viewing area. So many amazing photos. The giraffes have free range but the park is a few km wide so be patient with the guides as they round up the giraffes. 2 thumbs up!

Amazing hidden gem in Mombasa! Walk with the giraffe and have a picnic with them! Buy your tickets directly from the Sanctuary in advance! Ask your driver to take you onto the Sanctuary to View Point. Arrange for a guide to meet you there. Our guide - Omar was amazing. So patient, friendly, knowledgeable and very considerate and caring. We had to walk through mud up to the view point and our trainers were ruined but we had much fun on the walk. Slipping and sliding everywhere! It was worth every moment - once you see the tortoise and giraffes. This was truly a perfect ending to our time in Kenya and after seeing giraffes around Kenya, feeding giraffes at Nairobi National Park - this was the ultimate - up close and personal.

If you fancy being in close proximity to giraffes, ostriches and gemsboks without the presence of a barricade, then this is the place for you. Carry your own meals and have a picnic by the giraffes or at the sundowner site. Having a personal vehicle for commute through the sanctuary is advised due to the distance from the entrance to where the animals are. Outstanding views are nonetheless promised as you take that drive to the animals and rid yourself of the fear of these beautiful creatures; only then will you truly enjoy your experience. In summary, a beautiful picnic spot that is lacking in your bucket list🫵🏾 ~22 Aug 2023~

This not so small sanctuary is absolutely beautiful and amazing . The environment is quite blissful and tranquil...perfect for picnics, birthdays and outdoor events . The staff and tour guide were so professional and helpful. It's a must visit . I loved the giraffes and antelopes too.

It's a really nice beach to picnic because it's not busy at all. It can also be a good place yo swim when the tide is high. The museum, or site, is a lovely place to have a brief walk before heading to the beach. If you walk far enough down the beach, you could also find a few nice restaurants.

Located in Shanzu Mtwapa,this historical site is one to behold, the ruins and extensive learning you get to learn about different trees and how they are used by the community just explains why we are told that learning never stops. The entrance fee is 100 kshs per adult and 50 kshs per child for Kenyan citizens which is paid via ecitizen. After walking around the ruins you can walk to the beach and enjoy the views. They also have a restaurant,Moonsoon restaurant that you can drink or eat something during your visit here.

Nice to visit if you're around and want some history and a nice beach view!

Our guides was impressivly knowledgeable. The place is very well maintained. It was extremely interesting to hear about the history.

I had never heard of this place before 😆😆😆 so, after it was mentioned to me, I decided to visit so that I could stop being the only one in Mombasa who had never been there ....lol 😂 The reception was lovely though the payment process was long. You have to pay for you to enter the place, it's affordable 😉. There is a guide person who will be taking you round the place and giving you more information about things at the place. It's a good place to have a picnic because there is also a beach which you can access once you've paid the entrance fee. Good and amazing place to take pictures if you have a camera or a good phone 🤣🤣. The place is big with just remains of houses where others are labelled while others aren't. The place is historical because even the trees at that place look way older than I am or will be in the next 20 years 😁. There are dustbins around places so that the place can always be clean at all times, like no disposing of dirt around. Next time I'll be visiting the place with a lot of my friends and show them around and take cool pictures . N/B - The beach should be cleaned though, it was very dirty when I was there.

If you are not a history buff, chances are that you may not enjoy the historical undertones of the ruins here. Other than its historical significance, it offers a quiet and serene place awash with the peace of an untamed forest. There is a certain sense of closeness to nature that grips you, with plenty of centuries old trees dotting the landscape. An ideal place for a picnic by the beach front. There's proper waste management, making the place clean. Customer service is excellent.

Third time here. I love the serenity of the place especially on the weekdays. I tour the Ruins, then settle on one of the benches and read or just write. You can also stroll the shore while you listen to a podcast or just silently lost in your own thoughts. They also sell some snacks like peanuts albeit expensively. The tickets are very affordable. You can also ask for a guide to take you through the Ruins and give you the history of each excavation. They have a small museum as well. The only downside is you cannot go farther down the beach because it is not safe. People have been mugged and harassed so be careful. The museum is also not well maintained.

True to its name, the beach is scattered with beautiful seashells and I picked quite a few during an evening stroll. There’s public access, which makes it easy to visit, but note that they restrict entry into the water after 6 PM. I went back the next morning and caught a beautiful sunrise. Mornings are definitely the best time - it’s quieter, perfect for a peaceful swim or just private chilling.

Clean. One can hire seats for relaxing and enjoying the view.

Is a very nice beach. It is more local and you can just chill and stroll. Very chill vibe, if you want to take a walk on the beach. Lots of sea urchins though if ypu ho further towards the sea.

Very cool place for introverts😊

Nice public beach. Nice place to sunbathe, and swim at no fee.

Nice beach wonderful sites to relax

Cool to go there in the morning... not crowded, clean water and so cooooollll

Great place to spend your vacation so many activities and people but don't leave your wife to the beach boys to teach her how to swim shit happens

I was surprised to see how well n organised all those stalls n construction. It has definitely changed a lot from my childhood pirates I used to know. The local boys were helpful too with parking n information. Kudos !

Ole wako wajue wewe sio mkaaje, they sold me the coconut nini(madafu) for 5 dollars per😂. Go enjoy the view, feel the wind and smell of the ocean, go see where your girlfriends are being spoiled by wababaz as they boat ride💀

This is a public beach thus entry is free. It is close to Mombasa island and easily accessible by public transport. The beach itself is sandy and quite beautiful. However, it gets very crowded especially during festive periods and weekends. If you are looking for a peaceful beach to relax and unwind, this is not the place to go to. There are many vendors selling all kinds of street food and other items. You can also have a camel or horse ride on the beach (for a fee).

As a local tourist, it was a wholesome experience being the first time to touch the salty waters of the famous Indian Ocean. It was also great to learn that the moon's gravitational force shifts the waters just as Madam Lucy, my High school geography teacher, had taught me. Sand bathing, swimming, interacting, and madafu were a very awesome experience. Ni God manzee😅

A very accessible public beach, just off malindi road. At the entrance are people selling African ornaments and swimming costumes. You will be approached by very friendly guides incase you want to participate in water activities or you would like to hire floaters from them. They also take you to a place you can change into your costume. There are photographers incase you need a professional pictures of you at the beach. At the shores you can hire seats incase you just want to seat and watch the ocean and there are people selling madafu. You can also ride a camel at the beach for a fee. There are several hotels along the beach such as Milele hotel which is a non alcoholic and non smoking hotel. Then there is Pirates hotel and The New Big Tree hotel which allows both drinking and smoking. There are local women who also sell food at shelters famously known as kibanda in Kenya. Pirates beach is one of the free beautiful beach to hang out with family and friends and swim free charge.

Good beach to swim for it's free entry however, it's dirty. Something needs to be done about cleaning it's environment

Whether you’re looking for a romantic escape, a family vacation, or just a tranquil spot to recharge, Maasai Beach Resort & Bar is a perfect choice.

Fantastic experience. Need to be careful of sea urchins while swimming 🏊‍♀️

Too many people trying to sell massages and souvenirs. I understand the need to make money but the beach is for people to enjoy and not be constantly asked to buy stuff.

Pro - most fun I’ve had in Kenya. Great people, beautiful beach, good food. Lots to do. - Jet skiing was awesome. - visit Yul’s restaurant. Ask for Ayoba. - Fort Jesus & Old town Mombasa! Cons - Uber is more expensive here. Driver demands more. Power outages.

Beautiful scenery, white sandy beaches with loads of fresh air. They have different swahili cuisines in the surrounding restaurants and local drinks, eg madafu. Most of the people around the beach are helpful and friendly, but be mindful of where you leave your luggage. I had a wonderful time at the beach and ate at Mombasa Beach Hotel. Their servers were very nice and attentive. Their food was well made and full of flavours.

The beach is beautiful. However you cannot relax on it since there are sellers passing by continuously and molesting. In order to find peace, you need to get to the hotel's area.

Beautiful beach with soft white sand and Crystal blue water. The vendors can be a bit aggressive, but they will usually leave you alone after some time. All in all a wonderful place to come relax and swim!

The place is actually fun for kids. I had kid at the age of 3 and 1, they have fun for over 4 hours and they didn’t get tired. Purchased drinks and snacks inside the place because it’s not allowed bringing in stuffs from outside. Also paid for some token, actually I hate the fact you need to purchase a membership card before using the arcade games. Aside from those, it’s fine by me. Spacious, neat( the cleaner cleans every minutes that I noticed), and not crowded. It’s worth the price. If you have the money and the time, go for it. You can go with a tripod for recording if you want to make video and play with your kids, though I didn’t go with tripod but if I had, I would have experience some babies enjoyment also. Also it’s free for one adult i.e the mother or father of the kids. Go along with socks for kids and yours. No cash, only MPESA.

This place is an all time fav of my kids!!! The staff so courteous, the massive play area...the interiors...oh I can go on n on praising this place!! Found it to b super good. They even have a nice little cafe inside which surely adds extra stars to the over all experience u get there. It's definitely also an excellent venue for bday parties!! Every adult can bring out their inner child here!! surely coming back for more fun times with my kids!!!

The place is huge and very clean. The only issue we had was when it came time for lunch, you can't leave the place and come back after lunch, you can only eat from inside the place. There's a dining area at the top, and as an adult you'll pay an extra 500bob to go eat with your child. Also, you have to buy a membership card for 200bob in order to enter, this is on top of the 1500bob per child. We found that to be a bit unnecessary because we were touring Nyali for only one day.

Hello everyone, If you are looking for a great indoor play park for your little ones, Kidzania is perfect. My son is four and he loves it. I also enjoy the trampoline while he plays too. Who says adults can not have fun? I am a child at heart. The area is well air conditioned not too cold just right. The soft play area is a plus plus for little ones. The arcade several games. I gave it four stars because I think there could be more activities for the kids for example, certain days where they get like storytime and maybe a structured playtime.

Amazing indoor kids playground with indoor soft play, amusement arcades and trampoline park. Fully air conditioned, international standard and clean.

This is a very unprofessional establishment run by a rude manager with disregard to customers and their interests .She has very poor PR skills calling people liars. Going to an extent of refusing adults to step out for prayers! The premise has no value for money activities. The canteen was closed on the busiest time of the year. Despite that no drinks n snacks for children was allowed. Very disappointed n would not recommend anyone to spend their hard earned cash on this establishment.

The place is so good and organized,I loved the why the staff are active and look after the kids if left without parents,my 3 yr old had a blast

If you're looking for the best of the best, their jet skis are top-notch – powerful, thrilling, and incredibly well-maintained. A definite must-do for some epic ocean adventures! You won't be disappointed!

The best Jet Ski experience you’ll have. A helpful team and the quality of their equipment made this adventure unforgettable. Kudos 👏

It was my first time and I really enjoyed good welcome service not to mention helping you even taking good video New equipment better staff on the side and really cheap price will make you happy I really recomienda for every one comming to mombasa Thank you guys again looking forward to comeback.

On June 12th, a clear billing error occurred. I was charged $81.40 USD, whereas the expected fare was well under $30 USD. The price for one foreign visitor and one member of the EAC should have been approximately 3,300 KES. Visitors to be extremely vigilant and to systematically check the amount on the payment terminal before confirming their transaction.

5⭐️ experience here. Love the nee equipment and the hardworking but friendly guys i met there 🙏🏾

Was my first time, did it solo was shaking but loooved it.... thank you for the experience...

More then 5 Stars!! Guys as well the jetskis are insane.. So much experience and also unlimited fun!!!! I‘ll definitely come back!!!!

The concept is now an Air BnB one. The agent kept putting minimal electricity tokens so we kept having power issues despite having paid upfront. Other than that the place was very nice though you can't really swim at that beach as there are rocks and strong currents.

This place lacks common essentials found in bnbs ,kettle microwave blender even utensils like sufurias our chef kept on borrowing from other rooms ..the Jacuzzis are not working , the mattress in the master bedroom was soo worn out soo not comfortable, that place needs a lot of maintenance , no value for money at all

Disgusting place. They sell the sky but deliver clouds. Bure kabisa. From leaking toilets, to poor hygiene! The pool is dirty. The wardrobes are broken. Some showers now working, blackouts frequent( tokens running out) and no back up.cisterns without water.Customer care iko chini. Repairs take a whole day yo be undertaken. They give you a different house than what you had reserved. Lift imezimwa ati to save electricity. How pathetic! These ones should take a break, reevaluate, rethink, restrategize. Hapa ni kasongo tu. Had to check out midway and get an alternative accommodation which now gave me the sky experience I was hoping for.

I absolutely loved the place 💯 We booked the deluxe suite and the stay was comfortable. Would highly recommend.

Avoid this place immediately! No power, bugs everywhere and building is literally on its last legs. If you have a family, it'll be better to stay on the side of the road. DONT BOOK!

A very conducive environment for relaxation. A variety of foods and drinks offered at a customer friendly prize.

Great place for vacation for family. Good oceanview and friendly staffs

I really like this beach in shanzu the Serena area. It is not too crowded, the beach stretch is long enough for a good walk. I like that there no people constantly trying to sell you something unlike pirates. I go here to walk, read and just relax. There are also activities such as boat rides and jet ski's. I haven't gone on any so I don't know the cost. There are a few hotel's as well. You can go for a drink or a meal after your walk, swim or run. It is also clean and the sunsets are quite a thing.

The ocean views are breathtaking. Entrance is free. My best place to spend the evening while in Mombasa.

A very clean and beautiful beach, so calm and relaxing especially in the mornings. There are also so many thrilling activities to try out at this beach such as glass boat rides, snorkeling, beach safaris, camel rides, jet ski's, wind surfing, dhow rides, kite surfing and much more.

Paradise!

So quite,clean and alot of space

It's a beautiful place to spend the holiday, not crowded and very clean beaches

I loved the beach since it was never over crowded Also loved the boat rides

We had a well organised Tour, always on Time and our Guide was very polite and always helpful. We were travelling with our 4 year old daughter and it was not a problem. The price was reasonable and the communication before, during and after was on point. Can only recommend.

Victor Tours and Safaris Mombasa is a fantastic your company. The guides are very knowledgeable about the game reserves, species of the animals, and in some cases they spotted animals with their naked eye that I couldn't find with my binoculars! In general, our group of eight was very satisfied.

I made a wise decision choosing Victor Tours and Safaris Mombasa Kenya.They understood my needs and supported me throughout the trip. Thank you Victor Tours and Safaris Mombasa Kenya for great life time memories. Good luck for future. Love to company & best tour manager.

Great Experience - thank you Victor and Peter to make this unforgettable journey possible. Pick Up, Drive, Accomendation and of course the Safari itself was great and worked verry well. We definitly can recommend!

Honestly speaking, they have the best service, I was more than satisfied !! The driver was also very caring !! I will definitely book them again when am in Kenya !!

Travelling with young kids can be very hectic but Victor safaris made our stay memorable and fun, from the transfers to and from both the hotel and airport to always being on time when we needed them. The drivers are so courteous and friendly and a great source of information. Our road trips were field with historical stories and laughter. To any one thinking of visiting Kenya, Victor safari tours has you covered.

victor tour and safari is one of the best trips in my life. I went on a five day trip. I got to see a lot of beautiful things there. Their guard line is much nicer.

The Tamarind Dhow is beautiful. You get the beautiful coastal experience, fresh sea food, a band! And 4hours of a trip. They have a daytime and night time trips. Friendly staff too. Minimum 15 pax for the show to sail

Let's start with the word "Wow"! This experience was so lovely it moved me to tears internally, I couldn't ruin my makeup lol, and will hold a special place in my heart always. Bravo and hats off to the wonderful captain and crew service staffed on board the Tamarind Dhow. Let's start with my fear of missing the ship, enabling us to enjoy and wait for boarding at 6:30 at their lovely bar/high table drinking area. We enjoyed lovely moctails while seated high overlooking the city landscape, people speedboating and swimming in the ocean. Once it's time to board, you walk down an old pier onto the ship. Our seating, upstairs on the two level ship, was right beside the Captain, which offered great views and allowed us to have great conversation and share it with other lovely guests. Just know this lovely seat means you won't be the first or among the first to eat...they start at the base level. The welcome drinks were great, I enjoyed the virgin rendition because I don't drink Vodka. The prix fixe menu offered delicious meal options and the bread plate before the entrée was delicious. There's a very talented live band, that performed music that crossed generation, cross continents, and lifted most onto the dance floor! I definitely burned some calories before eating them again. That morning, my husband and I, shared a very private elopement and this was how we chose to celebrate our union. After being served a dessert platter that comes with the prix fixe menu, we were surprised with personalized dessert with a sparkler and the lead singer came up and sang the classic hit Celebrate; which we definitely did and will continually do with this lasting memory.

The Tamarind Dhow is an unforgettable experience. The last time I was on it was 20 years ago and the service is still impeccable, as is the food. Our server Mercy was very attentive. We had wanted the lunchtime cruise, unfortunately it didn’t happen since it requires at least 15 people to confirm. So the dinner cruise it was. We had a welcome drink, soup, salad, mains, coffee and great live entertainment. The dhow moved slow enough so those with seasickness need not worry. We got to meet the Captain and the Chef; all areas were accessible and there were numerous celebrations- from weddings to birthdays to high school graduations. Where the service needs immense improvement is definitely when it comes to making a reservation. If I hadn’t been persistently calling, we may never have made it in the boat.

What a fantastic way to celebrate my 60th birthday. All the food was amazing, (especially the butternut squash soup). Couldn't fault it.

It is an excellent, worthwhile experience when you're in the area. As you wait for the dhow, you can sit and have some drinks at the Tamarind restaurant. Staff here are so friendly and professional. The boat ride starts around dusk, with the early evening sunset changing into night. There are nice views of land areas, and you might be able to spot some famous ones too. The music sets the mood well as you head towards an interesting bridge underpasss experience in the dark. The food and drinks on board are great. There is something for everyone. Again, the staff on board provides excellent service. Don't be afraid to ask for anything. After completing the loop, you head back to shore. By then, you're full of food and drink, along with great memories. Be sure to mind your step as you step off the dhow.

Amazing experience. The welcoming drink is a cocktail in very good portions! The food was amazing! A whole 4course meal. The ambiance was excellent with some good flowing music that's relaxing. I had an experience on the evening cruise and the staff were very welcoming and added on an extra course of meal to celebrate different guests including me and my friends. I would totally recommend the Dhow experience for anyone who would love to visit Mombasa.

The services and food was outstanding The customer service excellent. The Capt Abu is excellent host and explained to me the different sites on the tour. LIVE BAND WAS OUTSTANDING. LOOKING TO RETURN

Awesome! Right in the middle of the ocean. Used a glass boat to enable us see the under sea flora and fauna. The guides are very well versed with marine biology and they go explaining all the happenings. Kudos to the Kenya Wildlife Service for protecting the marine park. There are very nice views of the beaches form the park. Definitely worth a visit.

Lots of coral & fishes protected by Kenyan Marine officals for tourists. Private boats are prohibited in this particualr area for roaming and fishing so one can enjoy the beauty of the sea. During low tide you can actually see the colourful fishes,reefs & corals. Must do snorkeling there.

The experience was good. It is a one time experience kind of thing. You wouldn't want to visit again. Most of the crocodiles are in hibernation mode so they barely move. I would recommend you to ask ahead of time and visit during feeding time. They do have snakes too and you do get to hold a 2yr old small crocodile. The pathway is accessible to elder people too and there is a seating space once you reach the enclosure compound.

Loved. Loved. Totally loved this experience! Our guide was not only very friendly, but she also discussed so many facts and interesting new learnings about crocodiles and the other repriles they had, with me and my kids as well. It was lovely to watch my children's interest grow, and even after 1.5 hours, they still wanted to learn. I totally recommend Mamba Village. Only caveat is that the structures are old and not so well maintained but this does not take away from the learning experience.

Great rides for the kids, decent prices and duration of the rides were amazing. Sarah kitheka is a great host

Adventure. The crocodiles (mamba) will definitely catch your eyes and they're beautiful ❤️👌

We were lucky with the very friendly and informative guide Cynthia. Nevertheless, the parc is old and Big Daddy was not there. Wonder if he even still lives. Still saw a lot of crocs and some snake. Ok go there if you have some spare hours, certainly not a ‘have to see’

Plenty of crocodiles to see and a few snakes. Would recommend a visit if you have kids. 350 ksh per adult resident rate. Payment by card or M pesaro only - no option to pay by cash. Child buggy cannot be taken on trail as it is uneven and bumpy. Cafe available on site for hard and soft drinks. Staff and guide were friendly and helpful Takes about 30-40 minutes to do a round visit. Good experience overall. There is Opportunity to touch or carry a baby Croc and the snakes if you like. In terms of feedback- the snake area needs to be updated and better maintained Containers were dirty. Phone Numbers on Google were not working suggest an update be made.

It was a great experience to see 300+ crocodiles together. The lady guide named synthiya was amazing 🙏🙏 . Once you are in Mombasa you must visit mamba village. The suggestion to mamba village is to improve cleanliness.rates are 350 for residents & 800 for non resident 👍
