The Nyali Bridge is a road bridge linking Mombasa Island with the mainland suburb of Nyali across the Tudor Creek inlet on the Kenyan coast. The present box-girder bridge replaced an earlier pontoon crossing that had floated on the tidal channel, and it eased access between the historic island city and the resort beaches to the north. It carries a busy stream of traffic over the mangrove-fringed creek. Visitors crossing the span gain views of dhows on the water and the container port beyond, one of the main gateways onto Mombasa Island.
