Kenya’s climate is generally warm, with temperatures around 30 degrees Celsius for most of the year, except for the months of May, June and July, when the rains occur. Evenings can be cooler, with temperatures dropping to 20 degrees due to the wind coming from the sea. We recommend bringing a light sweater for cooler evenings. Furthermore, it is useful to have a pair of light shoes and slippers, which you can also buy on the beach.
Cities in Kenya can vary greatly in size and layout. To move around easily, especially during the first few days, we recommend that you rely on a local guide or the host who hosts you. They will be able to give you valuable advice on orientation.
Although vaccinations are not mandatory, it is advisable to consult your primary care physician for information on recommended vaccinations. Regarding malaria, it is important to discuss with your doctor to obtain further information on prevention.

Kenya offers a variety of local transport options, including “Matatu” (minibus), “Bajaj” (motorbike), “Tuktuk” (two-wheeler) and traditional taxis. Prices may vary depending on the vehicle used, so it is always advisable to ask someone trustworthy for advice or, if you are in a restaurant, the restaurant staff. Asking a waiter to book transportation for you is a common practice.
Kenya offers a variety of restaurants serving local and international dishes. You will find restaurants along the beaches and in the city center. To best orient yourself, you can always ask your guide or the host who hosts you for advice.
If you want to dance after dinner, one of the most elegant and safe places is the “Comeback Club and Restaurant”. In addition to a large selection of cocktails and beers, the Comeback Club offers a variety of seafood, meat and pizza dishes. You can dine comfortably and then dance without having to move. With a DJ playing music from around the world, fun is guaranteed.
Kenya’s marine and terrestrial environment is precious and delicate. Over the years, some damage has been inflicted on corals and starfish due to human contact. To preserve these ecosystems, we recommend practicing eco-tourism and observing marine fauna without disturbing it. In particular, avoid touching starfish, as this can damage them irreparably. Conservation is key to ensuring that future generations can enjoy these natural wonders.
