Standing on a bluff above the lake several kilometres north of town, this museum covers the history and cultures of northern Kenya. The rooms contain lots of photo-heavy displays, but it’s seriously overpriced. Opening hours are basically whenever an interested person comes along. There is also accommodation available, which has the best views in Loyangalani.
