Chekechea in Swahili means ’Kindergarten.’ This site is named Chekechea because it acts as a nursery for juvenile species. It is a very shallow dive site that is excellent for nervous beginners, photographers who want strong natural light, and any diver looking for muck diving encounters with rare critters.
Critters at this site
Chekechea is a great spot to encounter juvenile fish species, schools of patroling trevally, as well as macro encounters with helmut gurnards, Indian walkman, and pipefish.
