Nakantenga Island

Very cool place! A pinacle of Rock with lots of caves going down to +100m Visbility is great down to 50m from where it gets murky. Big catfish down there!



Simbabwe Rock

Terrific site! 180min dives in the shallows are a very relaxing thing to do. Watch Haplochromis Kiwengi build their nests! Big catfish in the deeper parts as well as hunting Haplochromis ahli. Have a look at mouthbreeding females below the boat jetty! Try a dive around the little island. On the right hand side ogf the jetty there's a unique "forest" of waterplants.

From Chembeh / Cape McLear

Tumbe Island's Aquarium

Big boulders of granite rock. Lots of swim-throughs. Many aulonocaras and catfish. The visibility is rather low due to mudy grounds and slight current. Not as good as Tumbe Island but still worth one or two dives.
