The Kenyan Coast region
Kilifi is a beach resort lying on the estuary of the Rare River in Kenya. The beach itself is known as Bofa Beach and is said to be one of the best beaches in Kenya. The town lies on the Kilifi Creek between Malindi and Mombasa.
The town is known for its beach and for the ruins of Mnarani, including mosques and tombs, dating from the fourteenth to the seventeenth century.
Conveniently located within a few hours drive of the Tsavo national game parks Kilifi can be used as a coastal base for a relaxing beach holiday combined with safari excursions.
Kilifi is home to a sociable arty/yachtie community who have built some fabulous properties overlooking the Creek and coastline. For many years the only means of crossing the creek was by ferry, but a bridge was recently built.
