Shanzu beach

The long coastline is covered with white sand on Shanzu, as everywhere else. The bottom is sand but the algae band stretches for 1,5 – 2 meters. There are no slippery stones here, like on other beaches. Palm trees grow along the beach zone and provide good shadow.

Beach line hotels take small fee for beach access. All possible water attractions are available at this beach. You can rent a sling chair and an umbrella. In the neighborhood of Shanzu, there are situated both luxury hotels, working under the all inclusive system, and more low-budget guest houses.

While staying in Shanzu, you can also visit Heller Park. And by the park, there is carting which will attract both children and adults.

You can get to the beach from Mombasa on local matatu buses.
