Marine Authority Boat & Ferry Launch

Good spot to get boat transport to the Island Monastries.

Stay away from the Tourist Information Stand by the Ferry!!! I thought it was a safe way to book a tour but was scammed. I paid 300 birr to visit 2 monasteries on the peninsula and 3 on the island, but the boat returned after only visiting 2. The owners name is Tisfay and he goes to the Dessert Lodge to recruit people for the tour as well. Another girl paid 4,000 birr and neither of us were given any refund.

Nice place with no of boats to visit the Tana lake. I propose to book government boat in advance which will have rooms and toilets Don't wastes money by Consulting resorts. Here can find ⛵'s at reasonable rates

Timkat festival at lake Tana

Nice place to sit and watch lake tana, wish book a boat to island monasteries, one can watch pelican feeding on fish.
