Kisite Island is often called the "Home of the Dolphin," but beneath the surface lies one of East Africa’s richest coral biospheres. Here is what beginner and experienced snorkellers need to know.
What Marine Life Will You Encounter?
Expect over 250 documented species of fish, including blue-ringed angelfish, butterflyfish, triggerfish, giant groupers, and friendly green sea turtles grazing calmly on sea grasses.
Gear Provided on TripBambika Tours

Tips for First-Time Snorkellers
Use reef-safe sunscreen to preserve the delicate coral polyps. Breathe steadily through your mouth, avoid stepping on coral heads, and look rather than touch.
