Best Time To Visit

The best time to visit Mombasa Marine National Park & Reserve is during the dry season, from June to October. During this period, the weather is perfect for water activities like snorkeling, diving, and boat tours. The seas are calm, making it easier to explore the marine life and coral reefs.

The wet season, from November to May, brings occasional rains, but it’s an excellent time for those interested in birdwatching. Migratory birds frequent the park during this time, and the marine environment thrives with lush aquatic vegetation. However, the seas can be rougher, and outdoor activities might be affected by the weather.
