The story behind Bujumbura's ultimate lakeside escape on Lake Tanganyika
Our Story
Worldbeach Burundi was born from a simple dream — to create a place where the beauty of Lake Tanganyika meets great food, warm hospitality, and unforgettable experiences. Located on Chaussee d'Uvira in the heart of Bujumbura, Worldbeach has become the city's most beloved lakeside destination.
Founded by Papa Worldbeach, our bar-restaurant sits on the shores of Africa's longest lake, offering guests a unique blend of authentic Burundian cuisine, international flavors, and thrilling water activities — all under one thatched roof.
Whether you're an expat looking for a Friday sunset spot, a family seeking a weekend adventure, a tourist discovering Burundi, or a local celebrating life's moments — Worldbeach is where memories are made.
Worldbeach In Numbers
What We Offer
Fresh Burundian cuisine and international dishes served with a panoramic view of Lake Tanganyika. From charcoal-grilled tilapia to our signature Worldbeach Sunset Burger.
Experience Lake Tanganyika like never before. 30-minute guided boat tours with a captain and adrenaline-pumping jet ski rides on Africa's longest lake.
Our paid swimming pool is the perfect spot for families and kids. Cool off after a day in the sun, right next to the lake with a cold drink in hand.
Every Friday through Sunday, Worldbeach comes alive with live music and DJ sets — Afrobeat, rumba, acoustic, and more. The best nightlife in Bujumbura.
Weddings, birthdays, corporate events, and celebrations. Our lakeside venue and dedicated team make every event unforgettable under the stars.
