African Kenya Water Safari- Best Kenyan Indian Ocean Sea Tour Trips and Activities

Deep sea fishing in Kenya

Kenya’s coastal waters are gentle and warm fanned with mild monsoon winds, conditions that attract many varieties of fish, including Big Game Fish. The seas around Mombasa, Kenya’s major port, are considered one of the prime fishing grounds in the world, where fishermen of all classes, beginners to lifelong experts, can catch marlin, sailfish and shark, as well as Wahoo, dorado, barracuda, kingfish and other game fish. The proximity to the open sea means they are closer to the fishing grounds, so mid season (August to December) they fish near the reef for a minimum of five hours. When the northeast monsoon wind is blowing from December to April, the boats go further out and fish longer hours to pursue the great billfish. August to November provides really good sport for the big Yellow fin Tuna and the many smaller game fish. In among the Yellow fin Tuna are often found big Blue Marlin and a number of Striped and Black Marlin as well as Sailfish. The Yellow fin Tuna is one of the strongest fish that swim. During this season multiple hook ups are normal when the ocean can come alive with huge schools of Tuna in pursuit of smaller fish. During the bill fish season, which is from November to March, Striped Marlin are the most prolific, sometimes showing in packs of up to ten. Large Blue and Black Marlin are also quite common during this period.

Deep sea diving

Kenya boasts three beautiful marine parks with crystal waters, ideal for snorkeling and scuba diving. Most African Kenya coastal hotels have equipment for hire and offer reef trips in glass bottomed boats. Visibility is best in dry seasons – January to March and June to October and most the diving is drift diving. You need to be trained in order to dive, and you may be required to take a test. Take along your certificate. There are several companies offering recognized coursing and diving equipment for hire.
