Diving in Kenya
Over the years in Kenya diving has become one of the most popular sports. Kenya has a very large number of Diving Operators. The leading Diving Operators in Mombasa is Baracuda Diving Team and Diving The Crab.
There are a wide range of boats, top of the range ScubaPro equipment and well trained/multilingual staff.
Sea Life
In the crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean, there are more than 20 million tropical Marine Fish.
On every dive, you will find yourself swimming among shoals of fish and floating above breathtakingly beautiful hard and soft corals. In addition, Kenya is one of the few places in the world where there is a 90% chance of seeing reef sharks plus the biggest fish in the sea, the whale shark. Whale sharks are particularly impressive as the cruise slowly through the water feeding their 10-meter bodies with the plentiful plankton.
Visibility & Temperature
Water visibility is good and can range from 10 to 30 metres. Temperatures never go below 25°c and in the summer can reach up to 30° c. This combination provides an exquisite diving experience.
Dive Seasons
Optimal diving takes place between the months of November and April of each year. You can expect pleasant weather, the best visibility and an abundance of sea life during this period. Outside of this season is the rainy season which provides for a poor diving experience, so be sure to take make the most out of your Christmas holiday break and come dive with us!
