Conservation Center
At Swahili Beach we set up a conservation center with a focus on coral reef restoration and environmental awareness. The center is located at the beach front next to the lower swimming pool. We have created a small coral garden to showcase our underwater structures and activities and there are coral specimens on display. For children we organize eco-activities such as our Rockpool safari.
Eco Activities
Donation 500 ksh
Save our corals
Dive into the swimming pool with a mask and snorkel and collect colorful coral fragments at the bottom. To save the corals they need to be attached in time in our mini coral tree nurseries!
Rockpool safari
Visit the rock pools at the beach with a field guide and discover the marine animals that are hiding at low tide. Find all the creatures on the pictures and be the first one saying: bingo!
Beach Cleanup
Join us in a beach clean-up and help to protect birds and marine life from ingesting plastic or getting entangled. Count and analyze the found items and create a catchy message with it!
PADI Education Facility
ReefoDivers Diani
From the conservation center we run a PADI Educational facility that operates as a training hub for the local community. We have a sponsored compressor and scuba equipment and we make use of one of the small vessels provided by Swahili Beach. In 2022 we developed a Reef Ranger Traineeship for Kenyan citizens and a PADI Coral Reef Restoration Diver distinctive specialty course. Divers who have completed the traineeship can apply to join our local Reef Rangers in their daily underwater activities. We exclusively dive at our Swahili Nurseries dive site where we grow and outplant corals to the reef.
