 PEOPLE AND VEHICLES BEING FERRIED BY FERRY IN LIKONI MOMBASA COUNTY

 There is no bridge between Mombasa Island and south coast. Instead, the distance is served by ferries operated by the Kenya Ferry Service from Kilindini and Mtongwe to Likoni in the south coast of Mombasa. In 1994, a ferry serving Mtongwe route sank, killing over 270 people.

As a result of the major build-up of more luxurious hotels in South Coast and a lack of a direct bridge linking the South Coast to the North Coast, visiting tourists have the option of flying directly into the South Coast airstrip using the domestic airline, Air Kenya.
