Bird watching
Lutembe Inland Beach is the perfect resting place for all bird watchers heading to Lutembe Bay.
"Lutembe bay is an isolated remote place at the mouth of the Murchison Bay of Lake Victoria, between Kampala the capital and Entebbe. It is not a deep bay but surrounded with papyrus and more or less entirely disconnected from Lake Victoria by a marsh papyrus island.....Recently Lutembe Bay was declared as a Ramsar site and is habitat to more than 100 bird species. The frequently seen bird species include the Gull billed Tern, Papyrus Yellow Warbler, Greater Cormorant, and the Papyrus Gonolek. During winter, various species such as the White-winged black-terns, Grey-headed gull and the Slender billed gull migrate all the way from Europe in thousands, to this place. It is such wonderful destination worth visiting." http://www.birdinginafrica.com/uganda/birding-in-uganda
The best time for bird watching is 7:00am right after dawn. We therefore offer a special package to bird watchers that includes accommodation and transport to the shores of Lake Victoria, from where a boat ride awaits to take watchers to Lutembe Bay.
