As part of our ongoing commitment to providing you with a safe place to relax and enjoy great food on Diani Beach, we’re delighted to announce that 100% of the team here at the Nomad Beach Bar have been fully vaccinated for COVID 19.

Offering great food, and regular entertainment, Nomad’s is one of the hottest spots on Diani Beach, and along with Indulge Fine Dining Restaurant is a must-visit for any guests to the area. With the main beach bar offering a fantastic range of light bites and more substantial meals and Indulge offering one of Kenya’s largest wine cellars and a stunning set menu prepared by our chef, there is something for everyone at Nomad.

We will continue to follow the guidance and safety advice from the Ministry of Health, and to follow the COVID protocols we have at the bar and restaurant, which include allowances for safe distancing, an increase in the number of handwash stations available, and for our team to continue to wear masks, that have so far proven to be very effective in keeping both our guests and team members safe over these difficult months.

Along with the team at the beach bar & restaurant, our partners at The Sands at Nomad, The Sands at Chale Island, Diving The Crab, Lazy Days Private Beach House, and the Thinking Green project have all also been fully vaccinated.

For those looking for something special on Diani Beach, you will love Indulge Fine Dining. Located within Nomad’s Beach Bar, Indulge offers a stunning combination of exquisite food and one of Kenya’s best wine cellars.

Indulge’s unique one-table concept means that every meal there is an occasion, as you enjoy a private dinner just for you and your party. Chef Gabriele prepares a range of delicious set menus which diners can choose from that show the best of local produce and infuses dishes with flavours that are almost as good as the stunning views on offer from Nomad.

Meals can be perfectly paired with wines from our extensive wine cellar. The temperature-controlled wine cellar, that surrounds Indulge’s unique table, is one of the best in the country and offers a fantastic selection from around the world. For those a little unsure about what will work best with their dining choices, Moses, the resident sommelier is on hand to guide you through your options to help you find your perfect wine.

Pre-Order for New Year’s Eve Take Away Dinner

Let us introduce you to Chef Andrea Poggi, the inspiration behind the scrumptious meals served at Nomad Beach Bar and Restaurant.

Originally from the Italian part of Switzerland, Andrea discovered his passion for cooking at the age of 13, after attending a cooking lesson at school. From that moment, he knew ‘that was it’! At the age of 15, he started a culinary apprenticeship in Switzerland, obtained his diploma 3 years later and began his career working in Switzerland.

A few years later, Andrea decided to start exploring the wide world while pursuing his career in the challenging culinary industry. He first moved to Sardinia, Italy to work in the luxurious Hotel Cala di Volpe in Costa Smeralda, a well-known holiday destination for billionaire jet-setters. He then flew overseas to South America to work on board a cruise ship – a tough but educational experience, working 13 hours per day, 7 days a week. He then moved back to Europe and worked in Venice, Italy for 2 consecutive summer seasons, then in London, UK for 2 years before going back home, to Switzerland.

In 2014, Andrea felt the need to quench his wanderlust and flew to Kenya, where he finally settled. Since 2015 he has been working at Nomad Beach Bar and Restaurant, and what he loves above all here, is to be able to work with fresh produce from the Nomad farm. He also enjoys working with Chefs from around the world and being in contact with different cultures, further developing his open-mindedness!

Do not hesitate to ask to meet Chef Andrea, he is very happy to receive feedback – both good and less good – in order to improve his dishes! So it is no surprise if one of the great experience of your stay at Sands at Nomad will be the food, as Chef Andrea makes Nomad Beach Bar and Restaurant a haven for food lovers!
