Port city, very hot and humid, no garbage system to speak of.Many street babies(under 5yrs)and street kids begging for a shilling. Very interesting mix of culture here, swahili,christian, moslem. President of Kenya lives on Mama ndinga(sp) drive

Favourite spots:

Notable sites, Mamba Village(largest croc farm in Africa) Ngorongo cultural centre(11 tribal villages)Fort Jesus, Gedes ruins,

What's really great:
hangin' with the locals at the Jambo Hotel in Migidini Momabasa. Shopping for groceries, visiting the postal depots, riding the matatus.

Accommodations:
stayed with a local person in their place so I have no idea.

Nightlife:
Florida night club, and any one on the south beach.

Restaurants:
any local one is great however make sure you drink bottled water where YOU break the seal on it.
