3-Day Diani Beach Itinerary
Diani • 3 days • Est. KES 6,533 – 15,000 per person per day
Diani is Kenya's best beach town, full stop — 17 kilometres of white sand, a barrier reef that keeps the water calm, and a food scene that has quietly become one of the coast's best. Three days covers the essentials: a proper beach day, a day on and under the water, and a day for the south-coast icons like Kaya Kinondo forest and the Colobus Conservation centre.
This plan is built from the highest-rated verified spots in our Diani directory — the seafood shacks locals actually recommend, not just the resort restaurants. Drag things around in the free planner to match your pace.
