Diani Beach transforms after dark. Neighborhoods around Diani Beach and Colobus Conservation take on new energy, new sounds, and new possibilities — and the best way to discover it is on foot, moving between venues the way locals do. Track down Kaya Kinondo for the kind of night that only locals know about.
