Set on a pretty beach just outside Nsumbu National Park, this family-owned lodge has several spacious chalets dotted around the grounds, all made from natural local materials. The newest rooms are stunning and include beautiful furnishings and a huge attached bathroom with Balinese-style outdoor showers. There is also a campsite right under the trees on the sandy beach.

　　There's a large communal area right by the beach with plenty of comfy chairs and hammocks, plus a deck that juts out over the lake. The restaurant includes plenty of fresh Lake Tanganyika fish on the menu.

　　All kinds of activities are on offer here including snorkelling, water-skiing, bush walks and fishing trips. Ndole Bay also has a PADI dive centre where you can take half-day discover scuba-diving courses as well as a PADI open-water course. For trips further afield try a sailing trip up Lake Tanganyika in a wooden dhow, including fishing and diving on the side. The friendly hosts also offer rainforest and waterfall walking safaris in Nsumbu National Park, including overnight expeditions, and private beach dining for incurable romantics.
