A sunny, relaxed town with Italian flair, Swahili history and some surprising natural wonders.
Malindi is one of the coast’s oldest towns, with a lively waterfront, a famous Vasco da Gama pillar and a very good food scene that blends Swahili and Italian influences.
A short drive away, the red cliffs of Marafa, known as Hell’s Kitchen, glow at sunset, while Gedi Ruins and the Arabuko-Sokoke Forest are close by.
The beaches are long and quiet, and the town is a good base for deep-sea fishing, snorkelling and exploring.
Malindi is warm all year, with the best beach weather from December to March and July to October.
