It was ahead of Singapore, dubai, tel aviv name it. Tourists resorts were always full. I saw part of this era up to 94 when the infrastructure fell apart, the trash piles, foul smell, ugly chaotic matatu, beach boy menace... And terrorism. I still visit the now 3 star resorts to reminisce the good old days.. Back then they were visited by the concorde class, now not one white person in sight. The reef hotel, bamburi beach et al.
" Mombasa Island was´nt meant to accomodate so many people from every corner of the republic! Mombasa was clean when the natives knew who lives next door! Then came the people from hinterland (Wabara) who brought their culture and changed the land scape! Some never knew what cleanness was, used to use the streets as toilets and threw every garbbage in the street!! They were´nt or still not used to our "Swahili way of Living" including cleanness which is part of our belief of our Islam religion!! Multi Culture has destroyed our "Beautiful Romantic Island"and this causes hate among communities!
••••• Unfortunately,..Rich Swahili culture and it's people will disappear,..in 2 generation,..the bantu will displace them, Mombasa & zanzibar,..after unbearable harrassment theft killing,..they will attempt to move somalia,..first attempt happened 1992 when zanzibaris as refugees gone to mogadishu,...Indians gone,..
Wow! Mombasa was very clean....Yani mwafrika tumeshindwa kuhifadhi mazingira kabisaa...

I didn't know the ferry area was so bushy😮😮😮
Amazing!

Thank you! 😊
Also Sadly That train station is no longer in use. Shut down many years ago making way for a more grand terminal station
That ferry takes you from Mainland Mombasa over to the Likoni. The South Coast. It's all built up now
That is Kilifi Ferry
