Day 1: Arrival and Coastal Welcome
Upon arrival at Ukunda Airstrip or transfer from Mombasa, you will be welcomed and driven to Jacaranda Indian Ocean Beach Resort, a charming beachfront retreat set along the pristine shores of Diani Beach. After a refreshing welcome drink and check-in, you can settle into your room and begin soaking in the peaceful coastal atmosphere. Lunch is served at the resort with a variety of delicious dishes inspired by both local and international cuisine. The afternoon is at leisure, giving you time to relax by the pool, explore the tropical gardens, or take a gentle walk along the white sandy beach. As evening approaches, you will enjoy a delightful dinner followed by soft entertainment in a relaxed setting.
Day 2: Beach Leisure and Ocean Adventures
Your morning begins with a satisfying breakfast overlooking the ocean, setting the tone for a day of relaxation and activity. The resort offers a range of beachside experiences, from light fitness activities to simply unwinding under the sun. For those seeking adventure, optional water sports such as snorkeling, jet skiing, or dhow excursions provide an exciting way to explore the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean. After enjoying lunch at the resort, the afternoon allows you to slow down and take in the serene surroundings, perhaps with a refreshing swim or a quiet moment by the beach. In the evening, a themed dinner and live entertainment bring a lively yet elegant coastal vibe to your stay.
Day 3: Wasini Island Experience or Relaxation
After breakfast, you may choose to embark on an optional full-day excursion to Wasini Island, one of the most popular marine experiences along the Kenyan coast. The excursion includes dolphin spotting and snorkeling at Kisite Marine Park, where vibrant coral reefs and diverse marine life create an unforgettable underwater experience. A traditional seafood lunch is served on the island, offering a taste of authentic Swahili cuisine. You will return to the resort in the late afternoon, where you can relax and unwind before dinner. Alternatively, you may opt to spend the day at the resort enjoying its facilities at your own pace, from the swimming pool to the tranquil beachfront.
Day 4: Nature Discovery or Resort Indulgence
Following breakfast, the day presents an opportunity to explore the natural beauty of the coast with an optional visit to Shimba Hills National Reserve, a scenic reserve known for its lush landscapes, unique wildlife, and the picturesque Sheldrick Falls. A guided experience through the reserve offers a refreshing contrast to the beach environment. If you prefer a more relaxed pace, you can remain at the resort and indulge in its amenities, whether enjoying a spa treatment, lounging by the pool, or taking in the ocean views. Lunch is served at the resort, followed by a free afternoon to enjoy your final full day at leisure. In the evening, a special farewell dinner with entertainment provides a memorable conclusion to your Easter holiday.
Day 5: Departure
On your final morning, you will enjoy breakfast while taking in the last moments of the coastal ambiance. The morning is free for a short walk along the beach or a final dip in the pool before preparing for departure.
