You stand on the sand at Dunga Beach as fishing boats slide in from the Winam Gulf, and someone is already carrying a crate of tilapia up to the fish sellers. A hippo may surface in the shallows, or it may not, and nobody seems worried.
Back in town, Sunday turns Kibuye Market into a maze of stalls, and impalas graze the lakeshore trails of the Impala Sanctuary a short ride from downtown. The weather stays warm all year, with rain in every month and the heaviest showers around April. When your list runs out, a Local Friend knows whether the next stop should be the stacked boulders of Kit Mikayi or a plate of fish by the water.
