What To Expect
Slave Caves
The Shimoni Slave Caves, located near Shimoni village in Kenya, hold historical significance as a grim reminder of the East African slave trade era. Here's a description: History: The caves were used as holding chambers for enslaved Africans before they were transported across the Indian Ocean during the 18th and 19th centuries. Structure: The caves consist of interconnected chambers and passages dug into the coral rock. They are narrow, dark, and naturally cool, which made them suitable for holding large numbers of captives awaiting shipment. Purpose: Captives, mainly captured from the interior of East Africa, were held here in appalling conditions before being transported to slave markets in Zanzibar and beyond. Guided Tours: Today, visitors can explore the caves on guided tours led by local guides who explain the history and significance of the site.
