Diani Beach Glass Bottom Boat Tour
Snorkeling and Marine Life Experience in Kenya
Discover a different side of Diani Beach on a memorable glass bottom boat and snorkeling experience along Kenya’s beautiful Indian Ocean coast.
From the moment you leave the beach, the scenery changes. The white sands of Diani stretch along the coastline while the clear turquoise water opens up around you. Beneath the surface is another world, home to colorful reef fish, coral habitats and a fascinating variety of marine life.
With Aether Safari Collection, you can enjoy the ocean from the comfort of a glass bottom boat and, when conditions are suitable, get into the water for a closer snorkeling experience.
Whether you are visiting Diani as a couple, traveling with family or adding a beach stay to your Kenya safari, this is an easy and enjoyable way to experience the coast beyond the beach.
Experience Diani Beach Beyond the Shore
Diani is famous for its powdery white sand, warm Indian Ocean waters and tropical atmosphere. But some of the most interesting parts of the destination are found beneath the surface.
A glass bottom boat gives you an opportunity to look into the water without having to dive. As you travel across the coastal waters, you can look through the viewing area and watch for fish, coral formations and other marine life.
For guests who want to get closer, snorkeling offers a more immersive experience.
Put on your snorkeling equipment, enter the warm Indian Ocean and explore the underwater environment from the surface.
The experience is relaxed, scenic and suitable for travelers who want to add a little adventure to their Diani holiday.
Wasini Island
This tiny island a few miles off the coast has no cars or even bicycles – transportation here is by foot or wheelbarrow. Take the boardwalk to discover the stunning coral gardens at the west end of the island. You can also spot humpback whales and dolphins swimming not far from the shore.
Time Capsule: Dhow & Dolphin Adventure
Approximately 6:45 am – Your Aether safari collection guide will swing by for an early pick-up at your hotel or resort. We’ll head to Shimoni Village passing small coastal towns with views of palms and mango tree plantations.
A motorized dhow will be waiting for us at the Shimoni jetty and we’ll cruise off to the Kisite Mpunguti Marine Park, passing nearby islands.
We’ll swim, snorkel, check out the exotic sea life and hopefully make friends with welcoming local dolphins.
Landing at Wasini Island, we’ll enjoy a guided walk over the island, visiting its stunning coral garden and mangrove swamps.
Now it’s time for lunch – a bar-b-que of seafood accented with local Swahili dishes. We’ll eat, relax, and then set sail back to Shimoni.
If we have time, we may explore the historic caves where slaves were held before being shipped out to the slave market at Zanzibar.
Sail, swim, snorkel, discover – it’s been a full day of discovery off the Kenya coast.
