About this property
Diani Backpackers is located in Diani Beach, Kenya. The region is locally often referred to as ‘South Coast’ because of its geographical position south of the historical harbor town of Mombasa. From the gate of the hostel you are only minutes away from the walking onto bright white beach and dipping your feet in the warm water of the Indian Ocean. The town of Diani is basically an 8km long road that runs slightly in-land, parallel to the beach. The word ‘town’ might not be the best way to describe it though because of its setup (You’ll understand what we’re talking about when you get here). Along the beach road you’ll find a great choice of supermarkets, coffee shops, bars, restaurants and banks for all your first world needs and of course plenty of curio shops for your souvenir needs! The unique, blinding-white and ultra-fine sand of our beautiful beach can at low tide be as wide as 150 meters. It is protected by a shallow lagoon followed by the coral reef that sits at about 1km from the low water mark. Not only do these offer protections against the ocean, they also provide ideal conditions for swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, and watersports like kite- and wind surfing.
