Kasaba Bay is located on southern tip of Lake Tanganyika, in northern Zambia, and part of the Sumbu Game Reserve/Sumbu National Park.
Until the late 1960s Kasaba Bay was accessible only by air, or boat from Mpulungu, and catered to wealthy and international visitors. The Mporokoso District authorities had a humble guesthouse at Sumbu Bay, reached by a gravel road from Mporokoso. In the early 1970s this road was connected to Kasaba Bay Lodge, and a new lodge was built at Nkamba Bay.
