First among the things to do in Kenya that come to mind is the Maasai Mara National Reserve, which hosts the migration of nearly 1.5 million wild animals every year from July to October. In Nairobi National Park, just 7 kilometers south of the capital, you see lions in the same frame as the city skyline. Diani Beach on the Indian Ocean coast, with its white sand and coral reefs, is ideal for swimming and diving.
Diani
The shallow lagoon, calm for 350 days of the year, soothes every swimmer from beginner to pro. At dawn the beach is all yours, and you walk barefoot along the reef paths exposed by the receding tide.
Fatos rápidos: A variação da maré que chega a 4 metros transforma a praia de 17 quilômetros em um cenário completamente diferente duas vezes ao dia. A água que recua revela recifes de coral que você pode alcançar a pé e expõe peixes tropicais que chegam até os seus tornozelos.
Destaques: Na floresta logo atrás da praia vivem mais de 400 macacos colobus pretos e brancos; ao amanhecer, você pode observar de perto as famílias passando pelo topo das árvores. As tartarugas marinhas verdes que pastam nas águas rasas do recife de coral aparecem tão nítidas a 20 metros da costa que você consegue contar as manchas em seus cascos.
