Luxury Safari Lodge

Arra Fishing Lodge is a rare luxury niche property on the Omi Peninsula where the Albert Nile meets Lake Albert in the Adjumani corridor of Murchison Falls National Park. Built for serious anglers and wilderness travellers, the lodge pairs eco-cottage architecture with world-class Nile perch fishing, a spa pool, jacuzzi, and remote riverfront atmosphere far from the busy Paraa circuit.

Unlike mainstream safari lodges focused on game drives alone, Arra positions itself at the intersection of sport fishing, birding, and delta wildlife — shoebill territory, hippo pods, and elephant movements along the Nile. Eco-cottages with private decks overlook one of Uganda's most secluded Albert Nile settings.

For travellers searching for luxury fishing lodges on the Nile in Murchison, Arra Fishing Lodge delivers a specialist experience that general mid-range lodges cannot replicate.

Where is Arra Fishing Lodge Located?

Arra Fishing Lodge sits on the Omi Peninsula on the Albert Nile in the northwestern reach of Murchison Falls National Park, accessed from the Adjumani / Pakwach corridor rather than the classic Paraa route.

  • Destination: Murchison Falls National Park
  • Setting: Omi Peninsula, Albert Nile / Lake Albert delta fringe
  • Speciality: Remote Nile perch fishing and delta birding
  • Access: Road transfer via Pakwach–Adjumani approaches; charter boat options
