  1. Gazi beach.

This remote sandy strip is only known to the most ardent Kenya beach enthusiasts and is perched along the coast road between Diani and the Tanzanian border.

The waves are quiet due to Chale Island’s protection, and the sand is surrounded by old coconut groves that offer shade for those who find the equatorial sun too harsh.

The Gazi Women’s Mangrove Boardwalk, a significant marine ecological and tourist initiative, gives access to the beach’s northern end, where mangroves abound.

Women from the community run the location and lead visitors on tours of the mangroves. Enjoy the best views of sunsets in luxury lodges that offer the best accommodation.
