Tsumeb, Namibia

Lake Guinas

Lake Guinas is the larger of only two permanent natural lakes in Namibia. It is a sinkhole lake, created by a collapsing karst cave, located thirty-eight kilometres west of Tsumeb, near the D3043 road. Lake Guinas is home to Tilapia guinasana, a critically endangered species of cichlid fish, endemic to this lake, but at some stage introduced to Guinas' sister lake, Lake Otjikoto, as well as into a few farm dams nearby.
