Mombasa is the gateway to the Kenyan coast and has some of the best four and five star dive sites in Africa. There are several different types of reef, all pristine and exceptionally beautiful. From multicolored hanging reefs to large brain corals, all are complemented by the smooth, sandy sea floor and an incredible array of marine life. Some of the commonly seen species includes: trigger fish, moray eels, angelfish, butterfly fish, giant groupers, parrotfish, wrasses, scorpionfish, pufferfish, damselfish, manta rays, snappers, green sea turtles, hawksbill turtles and reef sharks. Seasonal visits can also be expected from Humpback whales and whale sharks. The huge range of dive areas also means there is an extremely diverse range of diving activities, from drift reef diving, to deep dives and spectacular night dives.

Getting a diving certificate is your ticket to a lifetime of underwater adventure. The Professional Association of Diving Instructors, or PADI, is the most widely recognized and respected rating in the world. Once you become a certified diver, you have the freedom to dive independent of an instructor. And the good news is that the PADI system is modular, meaning that you can learn to dive a piece at a time, and if you only have time for part of the course, what you’ve done won’t be wasted. If you’ve already got your Open Water certificate, why not try a more advanced course that will give you even more freedom in your diving. There is always plenty to learn, so contact us for more information about the exciting range of options available. If, for example, you choose to pursue your advanced certificate, you will get the chance to try ocean dives, night dives, deep dives and navigational dives.
