Msuna Island

About two hours’ drive from Victoria Falls on the mighty Zambezi River, lies Msuna Island, Zimbabwe’s best-kept secret. Tucked away against the backdrop of the scenic semi-arid Msuna Hills, this peaceful destination is a fisherman’s paradise with plenty of opportunities for fishing, especially for bream and the ferocious tiger fish. Other popular activities on offer include bird-watching, hiking and discovering the area’s remarkable indigenous flora and fauna. The island is usually accessible by road and is only cut off from the mainland during very high water. Visitors can also look forward to staying at an array of comfortable, well-positioned lodges, hiking along riverside trails, or soaking up a spectacular sunset while cruising down the Zambezi.
