Rubondo Island National Park

Rubondo Island National Park is on the southwest shores of Lake Victoria. The park includes Rubondo Island and several other smaller islands. A diverse collection of butterflies and bird life can be seen from the lakeshore.

The different habitats on Rubondo Island include open woodland, dense forest, swamp and savanna. This variety provides for an array of wildlife. Many of the animals found in Rubondo Island National Park were relocated here in the 1970s because the island was considered a safe haven from poaching.

Hiking, bird watching, wildlife viewing or relaxing on quiet beaches is a few of the activities to enjoy in Rubondo Island National Park.
