Additional Information This location is unique to the south side of Lake Tanganyika as it differs from the typical mega blocks of granite or time-worn smooth stone in much of the lake, instead being geologically along an area of cream to gray shades of sandstone resulting in piles of smaller, more rough rubble. This aged limestone used shares the color and character attributes of the stones found Chituta Bay. The rocky shoreline is also home to smaller rock-dwelling inhabitants, constantly staking territories and darting in and out of crevices in the rubble. Vegetation is sparse, with only one species of Vallisneria (thought to be endemic to the lake) found in this area along the shoreline, nestled for protection between or next to rock groupings.
