Kisite Mpunguti Marine Park and National Reserves are found off the Kenyan coast, 75 miles south of Mombasa. This Marine Park and Reserve has been a center of discussion for European marine biologists because of its increasing number of new fish species and corals being documented, and particularly because of the marine environment still being intact.

There are currently around 250 varieties of marine fishes and over 40 varieties of coral species documented. In the Kisite – Mpunguti Marine Park and National Reserves some of the commonly seen fish include large numbers of pelagic fish, butterflies, parrots, rock cod, angels, and manta rays. Turtles, dolphins, and reef sharks are also seen.

The pristine coral varieties are impeccable; corals like staghorn, brain, lilac-blue, mushroom, and lavender present unique photo-taking opportunities. The colorful beauty of the coral, complemented by a large number of yellow and red tuna and snappers is unmatched.
