Wasini Island is located on the Southern coast of Kenya and is well known for the cultural Wasini Village as well the restaurant that serves fresh succulent seafood. It is a base for lunch and a village tour when diving or snorkeling at Kisite Marine Park. Wasini is a miniature Lamu, in respect to its isolation from modernity, existence of the ruins from year years gone by and the presence of wasini cultural community settlement, the largest community, reputed to be dwellers that originally moved from the mainland for protection from slave traders and perhaps the authorities chasing the traders. A strong Arab influence has created a colorful, interesting community, steeped in history. If a visitor gets the opportunity to visit the local communities, excavation efforts by a local community member displays a collection of beautiful and ornate collection of ceramics, pottery and other items of antiquities. We recommend you stay South Coast of Mombasa if you would like to visit Wasini Island for your day tour.
