Workation in Kilifi: the essentials

Kilifi sits where the Goshi River opens into Kilifi Creek on Kenya's north coast, 56 km north-east of Mombasa by road, with a long bridge joining the two banks. The county capital has a real town centre with shops and banks, while the creek is used for sailing and swimming and Bofa Beach stretches north of it. Pwani University and a small foreign community of artists and lodge owners keep it from being only a holiday stop. The ruins of Mnarani, with mosques and tombs from the 14th to 17th centuries, stand on the bluff above the creek. Moi International Airport is about 55 km away, and the long rains fall from April to June.
