You want to see a paradox, visit Takawiri Island. It is one of the many small islands dotting Lake Victoria in South Nyanza. It has sandy beaches and palm trees.

It takes a moment for visitors to fully absorb the experience. Most of them usually say, “I didn’t know Nyanza had places like this!” Or “My God, this could be anywhere!” But it’s not, it’s in Nyanza. And it’s astonishing in its beauty.
