Kenya's beautiful coastline is world famous, and acts as the perfect compliment to the rigors and exhilaration of safari days. The series of palm-fringed beaches that stretch the length of the coast are of picture-postcard quality, and the range of accommodation suits all tastes. The Kenya Coast is one of Kenya's main attractions. It offers a combination of historical sites, and superb beaches and coral reefs, of which Ernest Hemingway once wrote that it is rare and completely unmatched in the world. The Kenya Coast can be divided into four main regions:- the town and port of Mombasa; the south coast stretching from Mombasa to the Tanzanian border, the north coast covering the beaches from Mombasa to Kilifi; and finally Watamu, Malindi and the Lamu archipelago.
