Kenya's Indian Ocean coast is generally humid and hot all year round with Mombasa's annual daytime temperatures averaging between 27 and 31°C. There is the chance of rain on the coast throughout the year though it's wettest and hottest during the mid-March to late May rainy season - indeed, we'd recommend avoiding Kenya's coast at this time.
October to January (especially November) is usually considered the best time to visit Kenya's beaches as these months offer the best conditions for diving and snorkelling.

Kenya is as famous for its dazzling beaches and tropical islands as it is for its wildlife. End off a classic Kenya safari with a stay on the Indian Ocean coast for the best of both worlds.
