The Kenyan coast has always been a choice holiday destination for Kenyans. The white sandy beaches, the fresh breeze and the hospitable people make it every vacationer's dream destination for a well-deserved recharge after a long year. This year again, some of the hottest New Year's Eve parties will be going down at the coast.
Hakuna Matata Festival NYE 2018 has us rubbing our hands in glee. For one legendary night only, this event brings us a mouth-watering collaboration between two of the country's top nightlife outfits - Epic Nation and 6: AM Entertainment - at the Reef Hotel in Mombasa. Africa's finest entertainers will be on hand to usher you into the new year from two grand stages.
Diani Beach Festival NYE Party will be an epic night that will bring the holiday-long Diani Beach Festival to a close. The beach is away from the hubbub of Mombasa and it sets itself as a unique location in Kenya's south coast. Its beaches are also some of the best in the world. Sultry Tanzanian singer Vanessa Mdee will dazzle party-goers as the fireworks ring in the new year. Now that's a grand way of saying hello to 2018.
Kilifi New Year 2018 Party should also be in your plans. From December 30^th to January 2^nd, it will be nothing but good music and a good time. The event, taking place at the Kilifi Ecolodge and Backpackers, is promising to give you a "village-festival" kind of vibe. The open-spaces and vast beaches will make you feel like you're removed from the bustle of the world.
Watamu beach is home to one of the best snorkelling and diving areas of the East African coast. In addition to that, the New Year's Eve Celebration Party will be taking place there. Ocean Sports Resort will have a dinner on the day and a non-stop party until January 2^nd 2018. The main attraction will be mixologists from Russia. Yes, they are bringing the real masters of vodka to Watamu beach. DJ Sumo will put the 'sic' in music.
Malindi has also something nice for you. If you are ready to play Nemo, The New Year Under The Sea Party is for you. Get ready for music, good food and games at the Driftwood Hotel. Save the date from December 31^st 9 pm to January 1^st 6 am.
Viva 2018!
