Ssese Islands are a group of beautiful islands on Lake Victoria. The beaches are isolated and the small jungle areas are safe and can be explored in half a day. The trip to the islands is rather long at 8 hours. A quicker trip is the 45-minute trip to Busi Island from Entebbe.
A number of small islands are scattered across the charming Lake Bunyonyi. The area is reportedly similar to Switzerland.
The Ngamba Island on Lake Victoria houses the Ngamba Chimpanzee Sanctuary. This fascinating place was set up in October 1998 as a project to take care of little chimpanzee orphans. Go on a chimpanzee-tracking safari at the sanctuary any time of the year.
