Palm Shade Camp: picture gallery


The first glimpse of Lake Turkana is always a thrill.
The town itself is minuscule.
Palm Shade Camp is in the 'heart' of Loiyangalani.
Facilities here (this is the camp dining area) are minimal and very basic…
As well as simple bandas, the camp offers tents.
Many people stay at Palm Shade Camp during the Lake Turkana Festival…
…which attracts people from many of Kenya's northern tribes…
…in modern as well as traditional dress. As the sun goes down, the audience joins in.
Palm Shade Camp is a good base from which to explore the Chalbi Desert.
