Colobus Cottage
We are situated in the beach resort area of Diani.  The beach here is one of the most spectacular in the world. It is nearly 16 km long, of pristine white sand and fringed with palm trees under a hot tropical sun!

Colobus Cottage serves as both the HQ for all our operations and the volunteers home.  It is located within the heart of Diani, and is set in its own large garden, full of trees and visited regularly by all the local primate species. It is also right next to the beach!  The cottage is clean and comfortable.  You will be sharing one room and bathroom with up to three other volunteers.   

Diani has many useful facilities including ATM, banks, email, 2 modern hospitals, shops and restaurants.  It is only 35 km from Mombasa and 1.5 hours from the international airport.  Water sports (scuba diving, snorkelling, kite surfing, etc) are available and big game safaris can be booked here too.  Internet services are provided at the Trust (for a small fee) so you won't be out of touch with your family and friends.

To volunteer, simply fill out the application form and mail it to us -  volunteers@colobustrust.org.
