Nyali Beach
Bästa tid att besöka
Come between December and March, or in July and August, for clear skies and calm water. Favor the morning before 10 a.m., when the reef is exposed at low tide and the light makes the corals dance.
Budgettips
Access to the beach is free, just budget a few hundred shillings for parking and a deck chair. To save money, bring your own picnic and negotiate dhow trips directly with the fishermen rather than through the hotels.

Om
Snabba fakta: Vaktad av korallrevet i sin lagun sträcker sig stranden över mer än två kilometer vit sand kantad av kokospalmer. Lokala fiskare, dau lausi, hissar varje morgon sina dhowar lastade med färsk fisk framför häpna badgäster.
Höjdpunkter: Vid lågvatten bildas grunda sund i korallrevet som skapar naturliga pooler där stim av fjärilsfiskar med gyllene ränder virvlar omkring. Små svartspetsade revhajar jagar ibland i dessa sandiga partier bara några meter från badarna, en syn som få besökare känner till.
Insidertips
- Slip some water shoes into your bag, the corals at low tide cut like glass.
- The most spectacular photo spot is at the northern tip, where the leaning coconut trees frame the lagoon.
- Avoid the noon hour, the sun is relentless there and the sand burns bare feet.
- Follow the steaming baskets of the shrimp fritter vendors at the end of the day, their taste is worth the detour.
