Milimani South

Milimani means ‘the place of mountains’ in Kiswahili which very aptly describes this dive site with its impressive hard coral formations - towering up from 18 metres to just below the ocean’s surface in some areas.

Marine life at this site

Expect to see the resident napoleon wrasse swimming by, as well as big schools of big-eye trevally, snappers and, fusiliers. Excellent site to encounter hawksbill turtles.

Based on open species observationswithin ~5 km — likely to see, not necessarily confirmed at the site itself.
