Kilifi Bridge

The 420-meter long concrete bridge spans across Kilifi Creek, featuring three spans with a central section accommodating two traffic lanes and pedestrian paths.

The bridge, completed in 1991 under President Daniel Arap Moi's administration, replaced the previous ferry service that connected the two sides of Kilifi Creek.

The structure serves as a meeting point where local residents gather to observe traditional dhows navigating through the waters while fishermen work below.

Located 56 kilometers from Mombasa, the bridge connects the B6 Road between Mombasa and Malindi, enabling efficient transportation along Kenya's coastal route.

The bridge's elevated position provides views of mangrove forests and marine activities, including operations at the nearby Kilifi Boatyard.
