Kanyemba Island is a place of legend and treasure at the confluence of the Zambezi and Kafue rivers.
Through the centuries it has seen the first Portuguese explorers and traders, the transit of slaving caravans, the passage of David Livingstone during his historical journey from the West to the East coast of Africa. It later has seen the passage of other explorers and hunters that have described the abundance and quality of wildlife of the Lower Zambezi and the harshness of the Slave trade that had one of its strongholds on Kanyemba Island. Amongst the first of them was Frederick Courteney Selous.
In more recent years Kanyemba Island was utilised for covert cross-border incursions by specialised Rhodesian forces during the Rhodesian war. In the eighties and nineties, it was an area notorious for its poaching activities.
