One of the most recent developments in watersports in Kenya has been the introduction of kitesurfing. Kenya is ideal for kitesurfing, owing to the warm waters, abundant winds and the beauty of its coastal areas.
Other watersports in Kenya include windsurfing, kayaking, catamaran boating and big game fishing. If you book into a beach resort, most probably you will be provided the training and equipment necessary before you go for watersports in Kenya.
The lakes of the country also provide many opportunities for indulging in watersports in Kenya. Boat racing on the Lake Victoria, once a traditional sport of the nearby villages, now attracts many visitors who are keen to participate.
Those who are not quite so keen on extreme watersports, yet would like to enjoy the beauty of the Kenyan coast, would like a leisurely cruise on a dhow, a traditional Kenyan boat. Take a trip to any of the smaller islets a little away from the shore, and spend the day picnicking, shelling, and fishing.
Divers will love the Kisite Marine Park in Mombassa, rich in marine flora and fauna. Many large luxury dhows offer daylong cruises on the sea. Explore the beautiful coral reefs off the coast, as you let the enchanting world underwater captivate you.
