About Snorkelling & Diving
Snorkelling Diving Kenya experiences reveal the coral reefs and marine biodiversity protected along the Indian Ocean coast. Kenya Wildlife Service lists snorkelling and diving among the principal activities in marine parks such as Kisite-Mpunguti.
Snorkelling is suitable for many travellers with basic water confidence, while scuba diving requires the appropriate certification or a properly supervised introductory programme from a qualified dive operator.
Greatlink Safaris can arrange reef activities from Diani, Mombasa, Watamu, Malindi or another suitable coast base according to the traveller’s holiday plan and the operator’s current dive sites.
Sea conditions, underwater visibility and currents change, so the final site is selected by the marine or dive operator rather than guaranteed in advance.
