Kenya has a coastline of about 640 km stretching from 1o 30’S at the Somali border to 5 o 25’S at the Tanzanian border (Figure 1). The continental shelf is narrow with fringing coral reefs that extend between 0.5 and 2 km offshore. Coastal waters off Kenya are warm tropical and are influenced by the monsoon seasons–warmer during the NE monsoon and cooler during the SE monsoon. The ocean current regime along the Kenyan coast is influenced by the East Africa Coastal Current and the seasonally reversing Somali Current. Most of marine fishing in Kenya is small-scale artisanal that operate in the coastal nearshores (McClanahan and Mangi, 2004; Samoilys et al., 2011a).
