Most people associate Mtwapa with a 24-hour economy supported by a unique nightlife and endless partying. However, there is the calm part of this independent part of Mombasa city. Besides partying, you can relax at Mtwapa’s Copacabana Beach.
This place has been made secret by the famed nightlife. It has been masked but it is worth visiting the next time you are in Mtwapa. The beach offers an exceptional view of Mtwapa Creek and the Indian Ocean in general.
It is worth noting that despite the calm, you will still experience the real Mtwapa. There are nearby bars, villas, restaurants, and private residences. You can party after a great day on the beach.
In case you purely love beach life, Tiwi Beach is a good destination from Mtwapa. This is another less popularized holiday destination.
The place offers a great stress relieving environment thanks to its countryside touch. It is great for those of you who find the famed northern beaches too chaotic. As you age, you slow your life thus Tiwi is what you need.
Moreover, Bamburi Beach, Shanzu Beach, Nyali Beach, and the super Diani Beach are awesome despite their higher pace compared to Mtwapa’s little heaven.
