Indulge your passion for angling on the shimmering waters of Lake Victoria with our Half-Day and Full-Day Fishing Excursions. Prepare for an adventure that will take you to some of the most promising fishing spots around local islands, just a short 45-minute boat ride from Entebbe. The specific areas you'll fish in will be tailored to the weather conditions and the fishes' inclination. Depending on the season, Lake Victoria can get quite rough with imposing swells, so we may opt for sheltered bays for a more comfortable experience. For an enjoyable fishing excursion, we recommend bringing along sun protection essentials like hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Comfortable footwear such as strops or sandals, insect repellent, and suitable shirts and shorts are also advised. It's wise to carry a rain jacket to stay dry if the weather takes an unpredictable turn, and a sweater or light jacket for cooler evenings. As your fishing journey concludes, your driver/guide will be ready to transport you back to your starting point. Fishing Timings: - Half Day: Choose from two time slots, either 09:00 AM to 12:00 PM or 1:30 PM to 5:00 PM. - Full Day: A comprehensive fishing adventure from 09:00 AM to 4:30 PM.
