Mombasa Travel Safety Guide — Kenya

Safety Score: 6.5/10 · Value: 8/10 · Beauty: 7.8/10

Mombasa is Kenya's second city and its gateway to the Indian Ocean, a port town with a 500-year history of Swahili, Arab, Portuguese, and British occupation that has produced a uniquely layered culture. The UNESCO-listed Fort Jesus guards the Old Harbour, while Diani Beach (45km south) is one of East Africa's finest beaches, white coral sand, warm turquoise water, and a relaxed resort scene a world away from Nairobi.
