Hidden beneath the sands of Diani Beach lies one of Kenya’s most unique dining experiences—Ali Barbour’s Cave Restaurant, set inside a natural coral cave believed to be up to 120,000 years old. Located about 10 meters underground, the cave opens to the starry African sky above, creating an atmosphere that is as magical as it is romantic. The restaurant’s interior consists of several interconnected chambers with a sunken central dining area, all lit by soft candlelight and lanterns that accentuate the cave’s natural rock formations. The result is an intimate, dreamlike setting perfect for special occasions, proposals, and unforgettable dinners. Ali Barbour’s specializes in fresh local seafood, featuring dishes like lobster, crab, prawns, and red snapper, alongside juicy steaks, vegetarian options, and international cuisine prepared with gourmet flair. The combination of fine dining, a unique geological setting, and exceptional service has earned it a reputation as one of Kenya’s most iconic culinary destinations. Its limited seating and exclusive ambiance mean that reservations are highly recommended, especially during peak seasons when visitors from around the world come to experience this extraordinary venue.
