Blue Lagoon National Park

Blue Lagoon National Park is a small wildlife haven in the northern part of the Kafue Flats in Zambia's Central Province. It covers about and is very accessible, being about west of Lusaka.

Ecology and wildlife

The Kafue River's main channel is about 10 km south of the southern park boundary.
Herds of Kafue Lechwe are seen in the flooded areas, Sitatunga in the swamps and zebra, Reedbuck and buffalo graze the drier parts. A very large number of bird species can be seen there, especially aquatic birds.
It is similar to Lochinvar National Park in the south of the Kafue Flats.

Facilities

The land was once a farm and the old farmhouse is now the Park reception. There are four chalets available for accommodation, and a campsite at the edge of the floodplain.
