Festival Overview

The sixth Kilifi Wellness Festival will be from Thursday 6th February to Sunday 9th February 2025 - a joyous celebration of love before Valentine's Day. It takes place at Salty’s Kitesurf Village on Kilifi’s stunning Bofa Beach and Three Degrees South Water-sports Centre on cliff-lined Kilifi Creek.

The festival is a safe and welcoming space for all who love art, music, yoga, fitness, discussion, dance, laughter and the ocean.

The festival starts with a blissful sound bath beneath the trees, and finishes with a dreamy cacao ceremony at sunset. The many highlights include Open Mic, dance performance and the moonrise dhow cruise.

The selection of professional teachers offer a plethora of movement styles, thought-provoking workshops and healing modalities to curate a deeply nourishing experience. Expect Vinyasa Flow, Meditation, Aerial, Circus arts, SUP Yoga, Yin, Breathwork, Qi Gong, Dance, Art, Laughter, Spoken Word and Tarot & Oracle Readings.

Therapists are available for private sessions including sound healing, Chinese medicine, massage, bodywork, reiki, physiotherapy, acupuncture, iridology and energy healing. The Festival Market is filled with inventive coastal creations, jewellery, crystals, fashion and health care products.

Festival Venue

Where an imposing creek meets a white sand beach, Kilifi is perhaps the most spectacular of Kenya’s coastal towns. The cliffs that line the creek are topped with whitewashed coastal houses, palm trees and baobabs, while the water beneath is dotted with yachts. Around the headland, the beach gleams white and the sea sparkles. Most of the festival takes place at Salty’s Kitesurf Village on Kilifi’s stunning Bofa Beach. SUP sessions take place at Three Degrees South Water-sports Centre and the Dhow cruise sails up cliff-lined Kilifi Creek.
