Kinondo Kwetu
Kinondo Kwetu is like a second home for Ida and Filip Andersson, along with their three kids, a family from Sweden with a connection to the famous Baron Blixen. This place is a peaceful haven on the coast of Kenya, away from the hustle and bustle, offering a more personal experience. Situated on a serene private beach over 16 acres of land, south of Diani Beach, it's surrounded by rocky cliffs and a vast beach, giving it a secluded feel.

We lose sleep so you don’t.
We take every booking personally. Here's what happens after you book a dive trip with us, before you fly and while you're away.
Your money stays in trust
Your payments go into a trust account, not our bank, and stay there until after your trip. If we ever stopped trading, the money would come back to you.
Your diving booked before you fly
Your dives with the centre or the boat, the flights, the transfers and the room you chose are all confirmed before you leave home. The driver who meets you will be there and will speak English.
A call before you go
Documents, visas, your certification card and insurance that covers your diving. We go through it on the phone, and you can ask anything else while we're talking.
On WhatsApp the whole trip
Wherever you are and whatever the time, there's one number to message or call. Flight delayed, room not right, a problem at the dive centre: the person who answers already knows your booking.
