Diani Beach, Beach resort in Kwale County, Kenya

The white sand beach stretches for 25 kilometers along the Indian Ocean coast, featuring clear turquoise waters and coral reefs below the surface.

The 16th-century Kongo Mosque at the northern tip of Diani Beach represents the long-standing presence of Swahili architecture in the coastal region.

The Digo people, part of the Mijikenda ethnic groups, maintain their traditions through local music, dance performances, and handicraft markets along the shore.

Visitors can reach Diani Beach through Ukunda Airport, which operates regular flights from Mombasa, or by taking the Likoni Ferry and coastal road.

The shallow waters near the shore contain multiple sandbars, while the surrounding area hosts populations of black and white Colobus monkeys.
