Lake Turkana – also called the Jade Sea, was originally named Lake Rudolph in 1888 and was renamed Lake Turkana in 1975. The lake is famous for its greenish-blue colors and it is notorious for the strong desert winds making sailing on the lake sometimes hazardous affair. With a length of 300 km long in North-South direction and a width of 50 km wide, Lake Turkana is the largest permanent desert alkaline lake in the world as well as the largest lake in Kenya though lake Victoria shared between Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania is much larger. It is the Africa fourth Largest Lake. As the Lake has no outlet, water is lost mainly by evaporation.

Early morning you will depart for Nakuru National Park. Which is approximately two and half hours from Nairobi.
Lake Nakuru National Park hosts a fresh water lake, Lake Nakuru is famous of its number of flamingos nesting along the shores. The surface of the shallow lake is often hardly recognizable due to the continually shifting mass of pink. The lake's abundance of algae attracts the vast quantity of flamingos that famously lines the shore. The park has recently been enlarged partly to provide the sanctuary for the black rhino. This undertaking has necessitated a fence - to keep out poachers rather than to restrict the movement of wildlife.
Lake Baringo
Lake Baringo is one of the water bodies that line up on the floor of the Great Rift Valley, the Earth’s scar that crosses the East of Africa north to south. After the huge Turkana, Baringo is the second largest in Kenya, with 130 km². Baringo and Naivasha stand up as the only freshwater shallows in the Kenyan Rift. The lake is fed by several rivers, Molo Perkerra and Ol Arabel, and has no obvious outlet.
Lake Bogoria
The lake Bogoria lies in a trough below the Ngendelel Escarpment, a shear wall 600 meters high. The lake covers 32 square kilometers. It is geothermically active on the western shore, with geysers and hot springs.The major river feeding the lake is Waseges River, which rises on the northern slopes of the Aberdare Range. The geologist J.W. Gregory described the lake in 1892 as “the most beautiful view in Africa”.
