There are many things to see and do at
Lake Bunyonyi from walking, bird watching to safe swimming and boat trips some of which land on the islands. Most boat trips come in at around £25 however they will carry as many passengers as are in your party and can be arranged with bespoke tours on request so, when booking your boat trip, or just turning up lakeside to be greeted with some urgency by local boat operators, ensure you explain exactly what you want, ie to go to Punishment Island or land on Kyahugye Island where you can go trekking in search of wildlife such as impala or zebras. If you don't specify you'll just get a generic tour around the lake.
In addition to activities, many just enjoy sitting around the lake after touring Western Uganda or as a precursor to trips such as gorilla trekking or exploring the local mountains. Whatever you decide to do at Lake Bunyonyi, you'll find it a beautiful and restful experience enhanced by excellent local food that caters for all tastes.
