Lukulu is a market town in the Western Province of Zambia, on the Zambezi River, and headquarters of a district of the same name.

Lukulu is at the north end of the Zambezi's Barotse Floodplain which at that point has not developed its full character, being narrower and less flat than it is further south.

Every year between December and March, the river rises above the low banks of its main channel and spreads across the floodplain.

There is a small pontoon ferry across the river, with a beach lying on the opposite bank of the main channel.

The rough roads are the only problem which stops trade and tourists from reaching the town.
