Binga Could Be Sitting On Millions Of Untapped Tourism Opportunities

Binga is potentially sitting on a tourism gold mine according to The Chronicle. According to the publication, the Binga beach on the Zambezi river could be a tourist attraction to the Matabeleland South Town same way the falls are to Vic Falls.

Binga Rural District Council CEO spoke to the publication and said there are plans to develop the area into a recreational park:

There are plans to develop the place. Initially there was an investor who was leasing it and had built some structures intending to make it a fully developed recreational centre but later left.

“We have finalised the process of arranging for getting new investors and probably after next month we may advertise for investors. We have some that have approached us but we have to go through the legal process and advertise,

The place is reportedly close to aerodromes and many activities like fishing and boating can be done in Binga:

The place’s proximity to the aerodrome makes it accessible to tourists from any part of Zimbabwe and even international visitors who would be touring any part of the country and want to be at the beach. They can fly to Binga and enjoy.

There is a lot of potential for the beach to become one of the key tourism activities for Binga. We have a lot of tourists who come and book at hotels here and once this is developed they can have somewhere to spend time
