The 25 km long white beaches run into the coastal town of Ukunda, which has an airport.The area is known for its coral reefs, the nearby Shimba Hills National Reserve, and its black and white colobus monkeys (Colobus).
There are several hotels along the  coast of Diani Beach and a number of bars  that are very popular with tourists and locals alike. Excursion possibilities to the nearby national parks make Diani Beach a popular place for the combination of a beach holiday and a safari.
