Description
Lake Turkana is a massive inland sea and the largest desert lake in the world. This single body of water is over 250 kilometers long- longer than the entire Kenyan coast. The treasure that lies in Lake Turkana is the massive crocodile population, which grows to a record size, with some of the largest specimens found on remote windswept Central Island.
