Likoni is a division of Mombasa County, Kenya, and is located to the south-west of Mombasa Island Although the area is heavily built-up with aging offices and apartments constructed centuries prior, the area also exhibits many examples of even older, more traditional Portuguese architecture. Likoni also has a high concentration of Boda-boda services. Likoni is inhibited with a huge number of lower class people who mostly ply the ferry to and fro Mombasa Island in search of their daily bread.
