Kalagala Island, Kangulumira (Approx. 25km downstream from Jinja). Accessible only by boat.

The Experience

Nestled on a private 6-hectare island within the Wildwaters Reserve, Lemala Wildwaters Lodge is an "African Eden" surrounded by the raging rapids of the River Nile. Ten spacious, canvas-walled suites are perched on granite outcrops amidst a lush riverine forest. Linked by raised wooden walkways, the lodge offers a total sensory immersion—from the hypnotic sound of the waterfalls to the sightings of over 1,000 bird species. It is a premier destination for honeymooners seeking seclusion or adventure seekers looking for world-class whitewater rafting.
