About Lake Tanganyika

Lake Tanganyika is the world's second-deepest lake (1,436 m) and one of the oldest and most biodiverse lakes on earth. The crystal-clear water supports hundreds of endemic cichlid fish species found nowhere else. Tanzania's shores border two of the most famous chimpanzee parks in the world — Gombe and Mahale — both accessed by boat. Remote beach camps on the lake shore deliver an experience that feels genuinely off-the-beaten-path.
