Board the dhow at 09:00 for Kisite Marine Park via the Mpunguti reserves, spotting dolphins on the way, then 2 hours of guided snorkeling and a Swahili seafood lunch on Wasini Island.
The Shared Wasini Dolphin Tour is our most popular day trip on Kenya's south coast. You'll join other travellers on a traditional dhow from Shimoni, cruising through the Mpunguti marine reserves into Kisite Marine Park, one of the best places in Kenya to see wild bottlenose and humpback dolphins.
Our local crew from Wasini and Shimoni know where the dolphins feed. They guide you through two hours of snorkeling over coral gardens full of tropical fish, then take you to Wasini Island for a fresh Swahili seafood lunch.
It's a great-value choice for solo travellers, couples and friends staying in Diani Beach, Tiwi or Mombasa who want a full ocean day at a shared price.
