Our Marine Services
To support safe and efficient maritime activities along Kenya’s coastline, the Kenya Meteorological Department provides specialized marine weather services. Our team issues daily near-shore forecasts covering coastal counties such as Kwale, Mombasa, Kilifi, and Lamu. These forecasts deliver critical information on sea conditions, winds, and weather systems—helping fishermen, port authorities, transport operators, and coastal communities make informed decisions and reduce risks at sea.
