Mombasa Snorkelling Packages – 2 Hours – Day Trip

Snorkelling
Mombasa Marine National Park
Snorkelling
Snorkel Mombasa Marine Park with everything already covered.
The reef sits a short boat ride off the north coast, so you can be in the water within half an hour of leaving your hotel and back on the beach by lunch. Parrotfish, angelfish and butterflyfish move through the coral in numbers that surprise most first timers.
Your park entry is included in the price, along with the boat, the gear and your guide. Nothing to pay at the gate and nothing to arrange yourself.
You do not need to be a strong swimmer. Everyone wears a buoyancy vest that holds you at the surface without effort, and your guide stays in the water alongside you. Children, nervous swimmers and complete beginners all do well here.
Two hours is enough to see the reef properly and still have your day. Trips run in morning and afternoon slots, and we confirm the exact time a day or two before, because the tide decides when the reef is at its best.

About Package
More information about this package
Everything is covered. Your marine park entry, the boat, the gear and your guide are all in the price. There is nothing to pay at the gate and nothing to arrange yourself beyond getting to the beach.
Suitable for all levels. No experience needed. Your guide fits your mask, snorkel, fins and buoyancy vest, briefs you on the boat, then stays in the water with you throughout. First timers and non-swimmers are the majority of who we take out.
Good for families and mixed groups. Children do well here because the water is shallow and calm. Anyone who would rather not get in can stay on the boat while the rest of the group snorkels.
Transport is not included. You make your own way to the departure point on the north coast, which is minutes from most Nyali, Bamburi and Shanzu hotels. This keeps the price down and lets the trip slot into whatever else you have planned. Add a transfer below if you would rather we collected you.
