Crescent Island Game Sanctuary

Lake Naivasha Open daily

Crescent Island on Lake Naivasha is a private sanctuary with no big predators, so families can take a guided walking safari right alongside giraffes, zebras, wildebeest and waterbuck. Being on foot among the animals is a thrilling, gentle adventure that suits children well. The island is reached by a short boat ride across the lake.

Good to know: Wear comfortable walking shoes; the guided walk takes around 1.5 hours.
