Big Game Reserved

You could say that Kenyans invented the word 'safari'. Meaning 'Journey' in the Kiswahili language it's a term which well describes the country's incredible collection of fifty nine national parks. Together with private reserves and conservancies these natural enclaves cover some ten percent of Kenya.

Protected by the dedicated Kenya Wildlife Service, the country's parks celebrate an unfettered glory, free from tarmac, fences and undue man-made constructions. With the hunting ban expertly enforced, wildlife trails are world class and safari here is quite simply unsurpassed.

With so many reserves it's impossible to make a short-list of 'must-sees' but certain parks enjoy global fame. Click here to find out more about:

Going Coastal

Far from the northern deserts, the waters of the Indian Ocean are an adventurer's playground. The Kenyan coast has a well-deserved reputation for big game fishing as well as world-class diving and its 300 miles of pristine white-sand coastline are a literal paradise for those seeking to relax on its shores.

The coastline south of Mombasa is a tropical haven of palm-fringed beaches, turquoise waters and beautiful coral reefs all easily accessed by road from the ferry terminal in Mombasa. The protective reefs have created calm, inviting waters, which are alive with coral, fish, sea turtles, dolphins and whale sharks during season. Both outer and inner reef walls offer superb diving with spectacular coral gardens and intriguing drop-offs. At Kisite-Mpunguti, a Marine Reserve has been established around beautiful Wasini Island - an ideal day trip for divers and snorkellers.
