Bushara Island

Bushara Island, popularly known as the Lake Bunyonyi Bird Paradise, is home to the majority of the Lake Bunyonyi bird species. If you're a bird watcher, don't miss a visit to this island for a bird-watching excursion; you'll be amazed at the diversity of species you'll observe in just one visit. Over 200 species of birds live in Lake Bunyonyi's Eucalyptus trees, papyrus swamps, and flowery plants, including the Harrier Hawk, Fan-tailed Widowbird, Pin-tailed Whydah, Red-chested Sunbird, Tropical Boubou, Grey-capped Warbler, Cinnamon-chested Bee-eater, Paradise Monarch Flycatcher, and Red-billed Firefinch.

Come to Bushara Island Camp, the first camp, which serves as a stopover for Gorilla excursions, a birdwatcher's paradise, and a private retreat location. This little island is tranquil, quiet, and natural, appealing to day-trippers and families, and providing a respite for tired travelers. Bushara Island is the ideal spot to get away from it all and unwind in luxury while being surrounded by nature. Bird viewing chances abound in the lush hills and papyrus marshes, while Eucalyptus trees and shaded nooks along private trails give peaceful spots to sit and read a book.
