94.2 FM Kenya

Sauti Ya Pwani FM on 94.2 FM

Sauti ya Pwani FM is a commercial coastal station broadcasting mainly in Swahili from studios in Ganjoni, Mombasa, with a network of transmitters that reaches Malindi, Voi, Galole and Lamu.

The schedule is a coastal mix. Talk shows and community programmes sit alongside Islamic teachings, and the music runs from Swahili songs to hip hop and RnB. English appears in some programmes, but Swahili is the station's main language, which suits an audience that uses it as a first language along much of the coast.

Away from Mombasa, the station lists 103.3 FM in Malindi, 103.4 FM in Voi, 105.7 FM in Galole, in Tana River, and 106.7 FM in Lamu. That spread means listeners can follow it from the Taita hills to the Lamu archipelago. It is sometimes labelled an English station, but its own description says it is primarily Swahili.
