Lupita Island Spa On Lake Tanganyika

Tanzania's most exclusive private island is surprisingly not in the ocean at all but is found in the heart of Africa on Lake Tanganyika. A remarkable acheivement of logistics, planning and building Lupita is without doubt the most tranquil island destination in Tanzania and the lodge itself sets new standards for the rest to follow. Expect to see the name Lupita in the style magazines once the journalists make the trek to the wild west of Tanzania.
