Kariba is located at the north of the country just on the border between zimbabwe and zambia.

I have always love going to kariba its the best place in the world.The only thing I hate is it gets so hot it gets hot.the best time to go is during the winter time which is from april to august.

The best place to stay is kariba breezes.or if all hotels are booked go on a house boat.you won't regret it you can then go and see any number of wildlife.For those who have not been to kariba do not swim in the water for two reasons there are alot of crocodiles in kariba.the best palce to visit i kariba is the senyati gorge its is very beautiful And I would recomend it to anyone.

you can go fishing and go on safari drives in kariba.

Take alot of suntan lotion if you are going during the summer.Temperatures range between 36 degrees celcius and higher.also take any malaria tablets before you go.most places offer mosquitoe nets but it is alway safe to be cautious.

If you wanna have fun fishing ask your driver of your boat to take you tiger fishing you will have al;ot of fun tryinng to catch them.tiger can also be found at the senyati gorge.

Over all kariba must be the most relaxing place ever so I wou;d recomend going there to anyone. On my last Vist to kariba it was actioned packed I went on a house boat to the senyarti gorge and I had just started fishing when Im court a squeaker.It took me a long time to real in.though catching a squeaker because they not edible whenever you catch one its like you have not caught a fish at all and all your efforts are for nothing.sueakers or mud suckers usually stay at the botom of kariba and as you guesed it They eat mud so thats what makes them not edible.
