Indulge In A Traditional Dhow Cruise Featuring Gourmet Seafood And Scenic Mombasa Views


Step aboard a traditional sailing dhow for a unique maritime experience that captures the spirit of Mombasa. The journey begins at the Tamambo Jetty, where guests are welcomed onto the vessel to enjoy a serene cruise through the calm waters of Tudor Creek. As the dhow glides along, the gentle waves and the surrounding coastal scenery create a relaxing environment, perfectly complemented by live entertainment performed on board to enhance the traditional atmosphere.


The culinary highlight of the trip is a meticulously prepared seafood lunch, showcasing the fresh flavors of the Kenyan coast. Guests can choose between a delicious Tamarind seafood platter or a prime Kenyan fillet steak, both of which are served with care. This dining experience is designed to be a feast for the senses, allowing travelers to enjoy high-quality food while surrounded by the natural beauty of the creek and the peaceful sounds of the ocean.


Following the main course, the meal is rounded off with a fresh tropical fruit salad, providing a light and refreshing finish to the lunch. To complete the authentic experience, guests are served traditional Kenyan coffee accompanied by sweet halwa, a local delicacy that adds a touch of cultural richness to the afternoon. This thoughtful menu reflects the heritage of the region, ensuring that every aspect of the meal is both satisfying and memorable for all passengers.


The dhow eventually moors at a secluded spot, allowing guests to soak in the tranquility before the vessel returns to the jetty at 3:00 pm. Whether you are joining for the lunchtime excursion or the evening dinner cruise, the experience offers a perfect blend of tradition, luxury, and natural beauty. It remains one of the most popular ways to explore the Mombasa coastline while enjoying world-class hospitality in a truly unique setting.
