Experience the off beaten track vibe of Malindi which is a mix of Portuguese, Swahili, African, European and Arabian cultures during your beach vacation. Relax in the shade of palm fronds swaying in the lazy tropical breeze before cooling off in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.

Highlights

  • Combine white sandy beaches with the warm tropical Indian Ocean and the sun
  • Experience the tranquility with all modern comforts
  • Be pampered at the spa and wellness centre
  • Partake in the many activities organized daily at the in-house sports centre and PADI diving centre.

Day 1: Travel to Malindi

Upon arrival in Malindi, you will be met at the airport and driven to your hotel at the coast passing through the vibrant, coconut palm-lined streets of the town.

You will have the afternoon at leisure to settle into your tropical hotel. Perhaps have a cooling dip in the pool or the warm waters of the Indian Ocean, go for a sunset stroll on the beach and sip on a refreshing cocktail.

Day 2 – 4: Soak up the sun

During your beach vacation, spend your days soaking up in the island spirit of Malindi, windsurfing, canoeing or diving amongst the multi – coloured coral reefs or just to chill out on the beautiful beaches of your beach resort in Kenya. If you are a landlubber then why not have a game of volleyball or beach soccer before sipping on a refreshing drink whilst lounging in the sun. Head out and go on a self-guided walking tour of Malindi’s Old Town.

Here you will be able to visit the Jami Mosque and the two striking Pillar Tombs which are said to be dated back to the 14th Century. Then browse Malindi’s huge open-air curio market admiring the intricate carvings and handmade jewellery and practice your bargaining skills. Or you can spend your day at leisure to relax and enjoy beach life.

Day 5: Farewell Malindi

This is the last morning of your classic beach vacation and you are free to spend some time at the markets where you can pick up last minute souvenirs. Enjoy the sun’s rays on the beaches, before being collected at your beach resort and driven back to the airport for your onward travel arrangements.
