 A chain
of islands lies hidden away in the western reaches of lake Kariba
in Zambia - these are the Westlake islands. When the Zambezi
filled Kariba, as it became the largest man made lake in the world,
they have remained remote and untouched since 1959. They offer a unique setting for the luxury, tented Chete Island Safari Lodge. This
is an untouched wilderness sanctuary which invites quiet exploration
and discovery. |

 This
27 square kilometre island, the largest on lake Kariba, lies offshore
from Sinazongwe, a delightful traditional village on the Zambian mainland.
This is a wild water wilderness, where the Zambezi valley game and birds flourish, unmolested and protected by the status of Chete National Park. The charm of Chete lies in its beauty, peace and tranquility, far from
the "madding crowds" of power boats and game drive vehicles. It nestles
in amongst a beautiful archipelago of remote islands hitherto virtually
unvisited by the tourist world, scattered with flood plain shorelines,
craggy cliffs, spectacular gorges and African Lowveld woodlands. The
western facing Lodge enjoys spectacular sunsets across the lake and is
the only Lodge in the Chete National Park.
