  The most ideal place to get hire a boat and go for an excursion while in Malindi. You have to pay for parking. They don't have the best changing rooms so come ready to go to sea. The excursion we took was about two hours long. We got to see turtles and many fish species. We got to swim in the Indian ocean and walk in a small sandy island. You should confirm the best time to go for an excursion so that you get value for your money

  There's not much going on there, to be honest. Great views for sure. And we walked from the marine park to Vasco da gama pillar, so a good experience generally. You will be required to pay for some things there though, that's if you want, for example the excursions. But the entrance is free for the beach. Don't carry plastics, though. That's prohibited

  The variety of exotic marine life was breathtaking. The local guides are super knowledgeable and really love the ecosystem. How to get there: Malindi Marine Park is located 25mins away from Malindi town. You can use a private taxi, a three-wheeler (Tuktuk) or a motorcycle. The boats all have lifesaver jackets and the guides are well trained. What to carry: Swims suits and loooots of sunscreen😄. The expert guides will provide you with snorkeling equipment within the package. Payment: You will need to pay the Kenya Wildlife Society (KWS) Park Entry fees at the gate, either via Mpesa, or Card. No cash payment is accepted for the entry. The boat excursion will range between $45 - $65 depending on whether you're on a private excursion and you have the whole boat to yourself or whether you're sharing with other guests. Time: There's two type of experiences while at Malindi Marine Park. You can decide to do the full day excursion which sets from 9am, and sails to the Marine Park, and further to the Magic Island, and finally to a private island deep in the water. Here, you'll get a chance to eat freshly grilled seafood. Boats return by 3pm. The other shorter and more popular experience is the Marine Park and Magic Island excursion which takes roughly 1.5 - 3hrs depending on the time you visit.
