Siavonga
Zambia's main base for Lake Kariba, Siavonga sits on the north shore of the lake in the Southern Province, offering boat trips and fishing tours on the water. For many Zambians it functions as the closest thing to a seaside resort town, and it draws independent travellers looking for lakeside accommodation and a reliable connection to services after time in more remote areas.
