Hotels in Kilifi, Kenya
Kilifi sits on Kenya's coast, about an hour north of Mombasa, with a tropical climate that stays warm year-round (80-90°F / 27-32°C). Famous for the 14th-century Mnarani ruins overlooking Kilifi Creek, you can explore the coral stone mosques and tombs during the dry months from December to March, then paddleboard or kayak across the creek when the rains lighten between April and June. The northern shore near the bridge has calm waters perfect for beginner kite surfing, while the southern beaches at Bofa offer longer stretches for sunbathing and swimming.
