Notes and Additional Information
Galu Beach is less developed than Diani, close enough to enjoy the Diani buzz but far enough away to enjoy a proper 'Robinson Crusoe' experience on this 25km stretch of sandy beach, long treasured by Kenya residents and ranchers for its privacy and beauty. Kite surfing has taken off here with excellent instructors and ideal conditions here.Diani Beach has a well-developed tourist infrastructure, excellent nightlife and a stunning expanse of white sand beach. Hospitals, Hotels, Shops, Banks, anything you need is around the corner. From sand-in-your toes bars, right on the beach, to hotel discos and restaurants, local village bars and dives, with water sports centres, excellent kite and wind surfing conditions, Diani has something for everyone. There is so much to discover - from the natural beauty of tropical flowers and breathtaking rural landscapes, incredible beaches to breathtaking wildlife. The gentle, laid-back rhythm of the South Coast is both captivating and calming- the perfect combination of a summer holiday. Famous for its colonies of coast colobus monkeys, Diani's residents have erected over-the-road ladders for the monkeys to cross safely from the beach to the back lands. Half an hour's drive away is the Shimba Hills National Reserve, a tropical coast rainforest belt with open scrubland, famous for its endemic Sable antelope, prolific birdlife and elephant herds. LOCAL ACTIVITIES: In Diani - golf course, water sports & dive centres, fishing, wind & kite surfing, snorkelling, excursions to Shimba Hills National Reserve.
