这是迪亚尼海滩一家非常有名的洞穴餐厅,这里原本是一处天然的洞穴,经过改造成了现在的洞穴餐厅。这里的鱼排非常的棒,香嫩可口,干煎的黄油味香气四溢,真的很好吃,绝对值得品尝一下。
#創創動計劃分萬萬现金 1. Diani Beach with Super Value for Money Five-star recommendation Diani Beach in Mombasa, Kenya, is the best value for money. I personally feel it is better than Tanzania! There are few people and it is quiet, and the scenery is breathtaking. 2. Itinerary After the 7-day and 6-night safari, you can fly directly to Mombasa, and then enjoy 6 days of leisure in Diani. There are jelly-like sea water and white sandy beaches here. There are no noisy crowds on Southeast Asian beaches. There are only Europeans who quietly sunbathe and read books on the beach, and there are giant baobab trees. The experience is great! 3. Transportation Guide 1. Train: You can take a train from Amboseli or Nairobi to Mombasa, and then take a taxi to the hotel (a taxi can reach the hotel in Diani in about 1.5 hours without traffic jams, and there are ferries on the way). The airport train station shuttle can be arranged in advance by the safari local company, which will save trouble. 2. Airplane: The round-trip ticket from Nairobi to Mombasa is about 800 RMB including tax. There are two airports in Diani, Mombasa International Airport (mainly Kenya Airways, you can buy tickets from this airport and transfer back to China via Dubai), and it takes 1.5 hours to take a taxi from this airport to Diani. The other is Ukunda Airport in Diani Beach, which is all small planes. The advantage is that it is only 20-30 minutes away from the hotel on the Diani coastline, which can save a lot of time. When traveling in Diani, the hotel security will help stop Tutu cars, which is very convenient to go to shopping malls or surrounding restaurants. The one-way price of Tutu cars is about 30-50 RMB. Taxis or ubers are basically difficult to get, and the price is expensive. 4. Climate and temperature Diani Beach has a warm climate all year round, with an average temperature of about 25-30℃, plenty of sunshine, and is very suitable for vacation. 5. Food recommendation 1. Cave restaurant: You need to call and make an appointment one day in advance, but please note that children under 6 years old are not allowed to enter. The main feature here is the cave environment, which is very unique. 2. Seafood restaurant: There are many seafood restaurants that are very good and affordable. A portion of wild Australian lobster (about 500-600g) with French fries and salad is only 100 RMB, and a portion of king prawns is about 45 RMB. Seafood is the king of cost-effectiveness. VI. Introduction to beautiful scenery The beach is pure and pollution-free, and it remains in a relatively primitive state. It is super suitable for swimming and surfing (surfing is very cost-effective). Most hotels have private beaches with strict security, few people and beautiful scenery. You can also go out to sea to chase dolphins and snorkel. You can ask the local guide in advance or ask the hotel to help book a day trip after arriving at the hotel. VII. Precautions 1. There are many monkeys in Diani, of various species. Baboons are larger in size, which is different from those encountered during safari. Be careful not to feed or provoke them at will. 2. You can take a Tutu car to the shopping center. There is a 24-hour Carrefour supermarket there, which is very convenient for shopping. #KenyaTravel #KenyaDianiBeach
