The tidal creek
An inlet from the Indian Ocean reaches towards the town from the west, and its winding, mangrove-fringed shoreline gives the map an irregular, organic edge.

The map
Chake Chake is the chief town of Pemba, the greener and hillier northern island of the Zanzibar archipelago. It lies on the island's west side, near the head of a creek that reaches in from the Indian Ocean, and the outline of that inlet is one of the first things you see on a map of the town.
The town sits on higher ground above the water. Its streets follow the ridge, and lanes drop towards the shoreline and the mangroves. Beyond the centre, roads fan out across rolling country towards other parts of the island. Pemba is well known for clove cultivation, and plantations and smallholdings surround the settlement.
A Chake Chake map poster puts an island town in its setting: coastline, creek and ridge together. In black and white, the uneven edge of the tidal water contrasts with the more regular streets of the centre. For people with ties to Pemba, it records a place that is rarely printed at this level of detail.
An inlet from the Indian Ocean reaches towards the town from the west, and its winding, mangrove-fringed shoreline gives the map an irregular, organic edge.
The main part of town stands on higher ground above the creek, with streets following the ridge and side lanes dropping down towards the water.
From the centre, roads head out across the hilly island interior towards other settlements, crossing country known for clove trees and small farms.
