The Nyali Bridge is a concrete girder bridge^[1] connecting the city of Mombasa on Mombasa Island to the mainland of Kenya. The bridge crosses Tudor Creek (a tidal inlet) to the north-east of the island. The bridge is one of two road links out of Mombasa (the other being the Makupa Causeway). The Likoni Ferry provides a third transport link to the island, and is situated at the southern tip. The mainland approach to the bridge serves as a police checkpoint in both directions.

The Old Nyali Bridge (a floating bridge) stood approximately half a mile downstream from the current crossing^[2].
