Elky Chale Island Day Trip

A Tropical Escape from Diani & Mombasa
Chale Island is a hidden gem located just off Kenya’s south coast—only 30 minutes from Diani Beach, approximately 1.5 hours from Mombasa, and 70 km from the Tanzania border.
This small, private island is renowned for its powder-white sandy beaches, vibrant coral reefs, mangrove forests, and a unique tidal saltwater lake.
The northern part of the island is home to a luxury eco-resort, while the southern side remains a protected indigenous forest and Mijikenda Kaya, an important ancestral and cultural heritage site. Its seclusion and natural beauty make Chale Island an ideal destination for relaxation, romance, and nature lovers.
