About Cha Cha
Cha Cha is a Bunaken east-wall reef site with a steep coral face, mild currents, and very good visibility. It sits on the island’s quieter eastern shore, where the nearby house reef and short boat runs make it easy to mix shore time with guided dives. Expect warm water, healthy coral, and a site that works well for scuba, freediving, and snorkeling.
