Dive and Safari Adventures in Kenya – The Ultimate Experience
Dive & Safari……The Best of Nature
Imagine waking up to the distant call of elephants, watching giraffes wander across golden plains, and finishing the day with a relaxing dive over vibrant coral reefs. At Ocean Tribe, we offer a truly unique experience that blends two of Kenya’s most breathtaking attractions: African wildlife safaris and world-class scuba diving. Our Dive and Safari packages are designed for curious travelers who want it all—and want it now.
Who Can Join Our Dive and Safari Packages?
Our Dive and Safari packages are perfect for families looking to make memories that will last a lifetime. Picture your kids spotting a lion on the savannah in the morning and floating weightlessly next to a sea turtle in the afternoon. These trips also work beautifully for dive clubs. We tailor itineraries so groups can enjoy a seamless mix of dive training, reef exploration, and exciting game drives. Solo travelers love the ease, safety, and social vibe of our guided trips. And for schools, we create hands-on learning experiences that tie together marine biology, conservation, and African ecology.
You don’t have to be a certified diver to take part. We offer beginner-friendly Open Water Diver training and combo packages that allow new divers to learn during the trip. Already certified? You’ll love our deeper dives, drift dives, and chances to earn advanced certifications while on safari.
Kenya offers everything from rustic charm to luxury comfort, and so do we. Our Dive and Safari packages come in multiple styles and budgets. Whether you’re looking for an affordable backpacker experience, a mid-range family escape, or a full-service luxury trip, we can make it happen. We partner with hand-picked safari lodges, private villas, boutique guesthouses, and top-tier beach resorts like Baobab Beach Resort & Spa. This flexibility allows us to design your trip exactly the way you want—without cutting corners on quality, safety, or fun.
Each package includes expert safari guides, private 4×4 vehicles, high-quality dive gear, marine park fees, and comfortable accommodation. You’ll enjoy a smooth, well-organized adventure from start to finish, with plenty of room for personal preferences.
Packages can be self-catering, bed and breakfast, half board, full board (all safari sections are full board) and all-inclusive.
What to Expect from Your Dive and Safari Adventure
Every Dive and Safari package combines time on Kenya’s famous game reserves with time beneath the waves. We run safaris to iconic destinations like Tsavo East, Amboseli National Park, and even the Masai Mara. Depending on the itinerary, you might see elephants, lions, rhinos, cheetahs, and more. After the thrill of the savannah, you’ll head back to the coast where the reefs of Diani and Kisite Marine Park are waiting.
Expect clear visibility, warm waters, and an explosion of marine life. You might encounter dolphins, turtles, schools of barracuda, or even the seasonal whale shark. Our dive boats are comfortable and well-equipped, and our instructors are highly trained and safety-focused. Plus, we offer a variety of SSI certifications for those who want to progress during their trip.
It’s also good to know how the schedule works. We can arrange morning dives followed by afternoon game drives. This setup works beautifully due to the proximity of the reef to the dive center and the availability of nearby game reserves. However, the opposite—doing a morning safari followed by an afternoon dive—is usually not possible due to timing and travel distances. So, we structure the days for your maximum enjoyment and comfort.
Why Ocean Tribe?
Ocean Tribe isn’t your average dive shop. We’re an award-winning dive centre offering courses from beginner to instructor levels. Our team includes experienced dive professionals, marine conservationists, and certified adaptive diving instructors. We believe in safe, inclusive, and unforgettable underwater experiences. Whether you’re a beginner or an aspiring dive pro, we provide top-notch support and personal attention.
On land, we work with some of Kenya’s best safari operators. You’ll travel in comfort, guided by experts who know where to find the animals and how to share their stories. We care deeply about conservation and work with partners who do too. This means your adventure is not only unforgettable, but also sustainable.
More Than Just Diving and Safari
Kenya’s coastline offers so much more than diving. While you’re here, you can try kite surfing, skydiving, snorkeling, or stand-up paddleboarding. You can explore coral gardens, visit local markets, or enjoy a beachside massage. The food is another highlight—fresh seafood, spicy Swahili dishes, and tropical fruit served daily. Whether you want to chill out or stay active, there’s always something to do in Diani Beach.
Plan the Trip of a Lifetime
Our Dive and Safari packages are more than just a holiday—they’re a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. You’ll connect with nature, meet incredible people, and experience two of Kenya’s greatest treasures in one seamless journey. And the best part? We do all the planning, so you can just dive in and enjoy.
Whether you want to travel this year or plan ahead for the next season, now is the time to book. Contact Ocean Tribe today to start building your dream trip. Adventure is calling, both above and below the surface.
