Charara Site is a Deed of Grant asset of the National Anglers Union of Zimbabwe

It is utilized by members of the Union and their guests for angling and recreational purposes.


The site is located in a National Parks Recreational area 25 km east of Kariba, adjoining Charara Bay and the Eastern Basin of Lake Kariba.


The site hosts numerous angling tournaments, competitions and social events throughout the year, including the annual Kariba Invitational Tiger Fish Tournament (Kitft), Test of the Best, National, Inter provincial and numerous club competitions and leagues.


Charara has in recent years also become very popular with wedding receptions being held on site. Our well groomed lawns and camping areas aspire well to these occasions.


The annual New Year Party for our younger community is also hosted here.
