The red lake in Kapedo, Turkana East, is famous because of its unusual red colour. Local folklore claims the lake is cursed and has demons living in it. Science disagrees and explains that the color of the lake is caused by the Dunaliella salina bacteria, which is attracted by the lake's high salt content. Palm Shade Resort and Camp in Loiyangalani is a great place to lodge if you're planning on visiting the red lake as they arrange tours to Kapedo.
