Speke Bay Lodge

Nestled on the south-eastern shore of Lake Victoria, just 15 km from the Ndabaka entrance to Serengeti National Park, Speke Bay Lodge offers the perfect retreat for travelers seeking a serene start or end to their safari. Set within 200 acres of savanna, the lodge harmonizes with its natural surroundings, attracting abundant birdlife, small mammals, hippos, and even a resident crocodile. Built in a traditional style, the lodge exudes an authentic charm, with luxury bungalows offering private terraces where you can enjoy breakfast while taking in the breathtaking views of the lake.

For over 25 years, Speke Bay Lodge has been owned and operated by two Dutch entrepreneurs who have cultivated a deep connection with the surrounding community. The lodge’s restaurant blends international and Tanzanian cuisine, with a specialty in fresh fish from the lake, all enjoyed on a terrace overlooking the water. Guests can immerse themselves in local culture through guided boat excursions, mountain biking, or birdwalks in the savanna. With its close ties to the local community, including support for a nearby school and a clinic, Speke Bay Lodge offers not just a place to stay but an opportunity to engage meaningfully with the people and wildlife of this beautiful region.
