Chale Island
Chale Island is nestled just 600 meters from mainland Kenya and Diani Beach. It is unique in Kenya and is embraced by lush jungles, framed by soft white sands, vibrant coral reefs, and a serene tidal saltwater lake. Barefoot paradise in a wonderful setting.
We like it here. It's unique, good value and adds another dimension to Diani. Great for honeymooners seeking escape.
