About This Tour

Enjoy Kenya’s most popular snorkelling and diving boat safari to the famous Kisite Marine Park, just 50km from Diani Beach. Diving at extra cost, pay on the day. Snorkel and/or scuba dive in warm waters with pristine coral and marine life diversity, home to dolphins, turtles, stingrays, moray eels and an unbelievable diversity of fish and coral species. Pilli Pipa have two sailing dhows and can therefore ensure small numbers on each for added safety and individual service.   You’ll have the chance to snorkel twice in Kisite Marine Park before sailing to your private Robinson Crusoe restaurant on Wasini Island to experience a traditional and fresh Swahili seafood lunch (vegetarian options also available). Your excursion with us includes return transfers to and from your Diani/ Mombasa hotel, all Marine Park entrance fees, use of modern and maintained snorkelling equipment, all snacks and beverages on board your dhow as well as alcoholic beverages and seafood lunch on Wasini Island
