One of the best places to run in Mombasa is along the Mama Ngina waterfront path. A palm-lined promenade follows Azania Dr. for 1.3 km, with great views of the Indian Ocean. The western end is near the Likoni Ferry, extending east to the part of the golf course that’s on the ocean side. It’s a festive scene, with lots of folks enjoying the sun and views. There are restrooms along the way. Those wanting to get the heart rate up can do some stair work at the Mama Ngina waterfront pavilion.

Longer Run: About 1 km inland, Athere’s a running track at the Mbaraki Sports Club, and a 1.2 km jogging path plus some fields at the adjacent Mombassa Sports Club,
