The Coastal Circuit

The Coastal Tourism Circuit of Kenya stretches from Lamu to Diani, offering a rich blend of white-sand beaches, Swahili culture, and maritime heritage along the Indian Ocean. Anchored by Mombasa’s historic Old Town and Fort Jesus, the circuit features popular destinations such as Malindi, Watamu, and Diani Beach, known for their marine parks, coral reefs, and vibrant local traditions. It is a hub for heritage, eco-, and beach tourism, contributing significantly to Kenya’s economy through community-based enterprises and sustainable initiatives. With improved infrastructure and strategic development under Kenya Vision 2030, the coastal circuit continues to position Kenya as a premier global destination for cultural and coastal tourism.
