Lake Mweru is located on the far north-western border of Zambia, and we share the lake with the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Lake Mweru is fed by two main rivers, the Kalungwishi River and the Luapula River. Both river mouths form important deltas that serve as fish breeding grounds.
Lake Mweru has a total shore line of just over 430KM, a maximum length of 130Km and a maximum width of 56KM.
Lake Mweru doesn’t change much in level and area throughout the year. The annual fluctuation in level, is less than 2 meters.
Lake Mweru is shallow in the south and deeper in the north, with two depressions in the north-eastern section. It has a maximum depth of 27 meters.
The shores of Lake Mweru are absolutely stunning, white sand beaches which beautifully contrast with the deep blue waters and radiant picturesque skies.
In terms of pure natural beauty, very few places can rival Lake Mweru
