Overview

This is one of the simplest ways to see Diani's underwater world. We sail out over the reef in a glass-bottom boat, so even non-swimmers get a clear view of the coral and fish below without leaving the boat.

For anyone who wants to get in the water, there's time to snorkel over the coral garden and to rest on a sandbank that only shows itself at low tide. Bring an underwater camera if you have one - the coral and fish here are some of the most colourful on this stretch of coast.

Highlights

  • A protected coral garden just off Diani Beach
  • Glass-bottom viewing for non-swimmers and young children
  • A sandbank that appears at low tide
  • Snorkeling included for those who want to get in the water
