Vipingo Ridge lies in the centre of a 2,500 acre former sisal estate. The property rises from just above sea level to a 140 metre high ridge before falling off again to the scenic lake and game conservation area to the west of the site. The development lies approximately 30 kilometres north of the historic coastal town of Mombasa and south of Lamu, a World Heritage site. The 1,500 metre private airstrip makes Vipingo Ridge just one hour’s flying time away from Nairobi. Vipingo Ridge is also about one hour by road from either Moi International Airport in Mombasa or Malindi airport. The entrance to Vipingo Ridge is just off the main Mombasa-Malindi highway

The Palm and Baobab courses at Vipingo Ridge bring an unparalleled new dimension to golf in East Africa. Built to the most exacting international standards, both of these courses have spectacular panoramic views of the Indian Ocean to the east and the vast African interior with its stunning sunsets to the west.
David Jones, Course Designer and a former Kenya Open champion said: “It’s an open secret that I have always loved Kenya and in all my years of travelling I have never seen a site so well suited for golf. Quite apart from the fantastic setting, the natural rolling terrain and the sandy sub-soils make this location perfect”.
