Overview
Nyali Bridge connects the north side of Mombasa Island to the Nyali area. Beyond serving as an everyday commuting route, it also functions as a viewpoint over Tudor Creek where it meets the Indian Ocean. Sunset views from the bridge, with dhows crossing the harbor, are especially scenic. It is also walkable.
Travel Tips
Sunset is a great time to photograph the bridge. Be mindful of traffic if crossing on foot.
