Nsonga Island, Uganda

Nsonga Island is on Lake Victoria, just 6 miles from Entebbe (first missionary landing point) in Uganda (East Africa). It is visible from the mainland and only takes twenty minutes to get there in a canoe from the Ugandan shore, but a speed boat is recommended...

This island is a whopping 135 acres of natural vegetation, surrounded by white sandy beaches. It's uninhabited and has no permanent buildings. It would make an excellent site for a tourist village with a hotel, cabins, docks, shopping malls, conference rooms, honeymoon suites, camp sites or very private holiday homes. Those who love birdwatching, fishing and boating will love this island.

Nsonga Island is easily accessible from Entebbe International airport. Its immediate neighbour is Bussi island--famous for its steady supply of the sweetest pineapples to the mainland. The lake has an abundant population of freshwater fish like tilapia and nile perch, but thankfully, no sharks.

Like most of the areas in this lake region, the weather is exceptionally good. The sun is up promptly at 7:00 AM and it's hot most ofthe day with cool breezes coming in from the lake. The people of Uganda have always been known to be very friendly and hospitable. This is part of the reason why many tourists are tempted to throw away their return tickets!

This island is now available fo sale or lease. Price negotiable.
