Funzi Island Day Trip with Lunch
Kisitempunguti,May 14, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Funzi Island is one of Kenya’s most peaceful and least crowded coastal destinations, located off the southern coast near Bodo and Diani. It’s a place for travelers who want quiet, nature, and authentic coastal culture, not busy resorts or nightlife. What makes Funzi Island special Funzi feels untouched compared to more popular spots like Diani or Wasini. It is made up of mangrove-covered islands, sandbanks, and narrow creeks where life moves with the tide. Visitors often describe it as a “hidden paradise” because of its calm atmosphere and lack of mass tourism.

5.00I recently experienced the Funzi Island Safari River Ramisi tour, and it was truly amazing. The boat ride along the Ramisi River was beautiful and peaceful, and spotting a crocodile was such an exciting highlight. We then visited the Funzi Nature Trail, where we enjoyed delicious, fresh seafood in a serene setting. The village visit was insightful and added a meaningful cultural touch to the whole experience. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for adventure, great food, and an authentic coastal experience.
Fabulous
