Your adventure begins in the morning with a convenient pick-up from your hotel in Diani as you head towards Tiwi Beach.
At Kongo River, you’ll cross to the Tiwi side with the help of your host and embark on a motorbike ride to Twiga Campsite, where the day’s first hands-on exploration begins.
From Twiga, enjoy a short reef walk guided by your host, discovering vibrant marine life among the tidal pools. Then, snorkel at the African Pool, a natural wonder shaped like the map of Africa. Take your time to admire the sparkling waters and unique rock formations, capture unforgettable photos, and soak in the serene coastal beauty.
Afterwards, return to Twiga Lodge and hop on a motorbike for a scenic ride through Tiwi Village on your way to Ukunda Town. Here, you’ll visit a local artisan workshop and try your hand at making your very own bracelet, learning traditional crafting techniques and creating a unique keepsake to take home.
Once the creative activity is complete, enjoy a flavourful Swahili lunch at a nearby restaurant, savouring dishes made with fresh, authentic local ingredients.
The day winds down with a traditional canoe ride along the Kongo River at sunset. Glide past lush mangroves as the sky turns golden and pink, soaking in the peaceful atmosphere and reflecting on a day full of adventure.
Finally, you’ll be returned to your hotel in Diani, carrying memories of a truly unforgettable day filled with culture, nature, and coastal beauty.
