The hottest months are usually March and February, with an average temperature of 28°C, while the coldest months are August and July, with an average of 25°C. Average annual precipitation for Mombasa is 967 mm. ### What is there to see and do in Mombasa? > You don't have to spend big to find places to visit in Mombasa. You can budget for the local attractions that interest you most, and then make time for sights and activities that are easy on the wallet. Explore and snap photos of landmarks like Fort Jesus, or hunt for bargains with some shopping at Mtwapa Mall and City Mall. ### How can I get to Mombasa and get around on a budget? > Scoping out the transportation options in Mombasa can help keep you on budget. The nearest airport is 3.5 mi (5.6 km) away from the centre in Mombasa (MBA-Moi Intl.). However, if that doesn't suit your budget, you can book a flight to Vipingo (VPG), located 16.9 mi (27.2 km) away. Mombasa may not have many public transport options to choose from so a rental car could be an economical alternative to explore the area. ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - Accommodation - Flights -
