1 Day Tamarind Dhow @ EURO 150 pp

Take a cruise around Mombasa old town while you enjoy a tantalizing seafood meal

The Dinner cruise departs from the Tamambo Jetty at 1700 hrs, cruises towards the sea front to get a view of Fort Jessus then turn serenely up the Tudor Creek to a secluded spot where the dhow moors. Dinner consists of a delicious Tamarind seafood platter or a prime Kenyan fillet steak followed by a fresh tropical fruit salad and rounded off with Kenyan Coffee and halwa. The dhow returns to the jetty at 2100 hrs. (Nawalkilkher)

These boats used to trade cargo along Kenya’s coast onto the Arab states. They have been refurbished as floating restaurants retaining the traditional aspects. They’re now moored at the Mombasa Tamarind jetty.

Nawalilkher is available for private bookings and can seat up to 7-pax, leaving plenty of room for dancing on the night cocktails. The dhow can also hold cocktail parties for up to 100 people. Babulkher has a capacity of 55 pax for dinner and 70 pax for cocktails and is also available for exclusive hire
