The coastal city of Mombasa is one of Africa’s major tourist destinations and is the second largest city in Kenya, lying on the Indian Ocean. It is located on Kenya’s Eastern coastline bordering the Indian Ocean. It has a major port and an international airport. The city is the centre of the coastal tourism industry. The original Arabic name is Manbasa; in Swahili it is called Kisiwa Cha Mvita (or Mvita for short), which means “Island of War”, due to the many changes in its ownership.
Mombasa has some of the best beaches in the world and has also become popular for its diverse marine life, game park safaris, world-class hotels and friendly people.
In addition to its beautiful beaches, Mombasa offers a diverse cultural history. The City traces many of its cultural traditions to former Portuguese, Arab and British settlers – all of which have left a lasting influence on the City’s food, architecture, and people.
Mombasa is where I was born and it will always have a special place in my heart…
