The raised terraces and similiar shore elements of Kilifi District, Coast Province, Kenya, between local Datum level and c. 20 m above Datum have been levelled. It was found that the shore elements can be grouped into several different levels
south of Kilifi. Unfortunately, there are few indications for the age of the shore elements levels. However, there are some indications of a rather recent age (below about 3000 years) for the lower levels below c. 10-11 m above Datum.
