Diani Beach stretches along Kenya's southern coast as a tropical paradise of powder-white sand beaches, swaying palm trees, and the warm turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. This award-winning beach destination combines natural beauty with luxury amenities, creating the perfect complement to a safari adventure.
