Lake Nakuru
Waktu terbaik untuk berkunjung
The best period is June to September, when the water recedes and the flamingos arrive in large numbers. Early mornings deliver the most active wildlife and the most beautiful light for photos.
Tips anggaran
The day pass for foreigners costs roughly 60 dollars and stays valid for 24 hours, so an early morning and late afternoon are covered in one go. Driving yourself saves a lot, since the surcharge for a park guide or full tour is considerable.

Fakta cepat: At favorable water levels, more than a million flamingos sometimes settle here, their pink mass discoloring the entire shoreline. Extremely alkaline water allows mostly blue-green algae to grow, the birds' favorite food, while Rothschild giraffes and white rhinos inhabit the surrounding park.
Sorotan: When the water level drops, the shore turns into a slowly moving pink blanket of hundreds of thousands of flamingos that loudly chatter as they wade through the shallow water. The birds scoop through the mud with their heads upside down and often balance on one leg, a comical spectacle you can watch up close.
Tips orang dalam
- Put on a windbreaker, because the wind really picks up on the open shore.
- Go to the west bank just after sunrise, where the morning light colors the pink birds most beautifully.
- Skip the first viewpoint and drive on to the second, because it is quieter there and you see more.
- Keep the windows closed and give rhinos and buffalo plenty of room when they cross the road.
