Diving in Kilwa is a great experience for all divers, just a few hundred yards from Kimbilio Lodge.
Kilwa gives a great diversity with numerous options ranging from shallow dives, deep dives, caves, to drift dives and archeological dives. Visibility is always above 20 mt.
The diving centre, only one in a 200 miles radius, has brand new equipment, Bauer compressor. We dive with groups of max 6 at one time and can do double dive in the morning and double dive in the afternoons.



Coral Garden:

White tip corner:
The Coral Garden ends with a soft slope to reach the White tip Corner. Is a wonderful dive between 18 and 25 mt. Where the currents of the bay and the Indian Ocean meet creating a perfect spot where to see turtles as well as predators such as the White and Black tip sharks lying on the bottom. Barracudas, Mantas and often many friendly dolphins enjoy having a bit of fun with divers.


Henry’s lane:
Coming into the bay from the Coral Garden, about 20 min by boat ride from the Kimbilio Lodge, Henry’s Lane is a great drift dive. Named after his discoverer, after a couple of hundred yards in the shallow waters covered with corals Henry’s Lane plunges down a wall covered with caves to about 22 mt.
