Tiwi Beach
A secluded beach north of Diani, with large reef pools exposed at low tide, ideal for children to paddle and for observing marine life.
Tiwi Beach lies north of Diani, beyond the Kongo River mouth. It is lined with small holiday houses and campsites and sees few visitors. At low tide, a large coral reef platform and natural rock pools are exposed in front of the beach, where you can see starfish, small fish and conch. The water is warm and calm. The Kongo River mouth has mangroves and ancient baobab trees. The roads are rough, so take a tuk-tuk or drive yourself. The beach is remote, so keep your valuables safe.
