    Set deep in the heart of the African interior on a stretch of secluded golden beach, Kungwe Beach Lodge is the perfect blend of comfort and luxury in a romantic setting. With the chain of wild, jungle-draped Mountians rising high up behind, the lodge is ideally positioned along the beach under the tropical shade of the Mahale forest with breathtaking views over the crystal clear waters of Lake Tanganyika. The raised thatched mess, built in the shape of a Dhouw boat, is where most meals are served and also offers a cozy lounge area, with a small selection of books and board games for lazy afternoons. Guests enjoy sundowners and share their adventures of the day around a crackling fire whilst the sun slowly slips over the mountians of Congo. Barbeque candlelit dinners are served on the beach, to the unique sounds of Africa - beetles, crickets and the night calls of chimpanzees, the only way to relax after a perfect day!
