Top 3 things to do in Malawi

Experience the Beauty of Lake Malawi

Lake Malawi, also known as the ‘Lake of Stars’, is one of Africa’s largest and most stunning freshwater lakes. The crystal-clear waters, golden beaches, and vibrant fish species make it perfect for snorkelling, diving, and kayaking. Visitors can explore the Lake Malawi National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, home to unique cichlid fish found nowhere else in the world. The lake’s peaceful islands, such as Likoma Island, offer a tranquil escape, while the shores are dotted with charming fishing villages where travellers can experience local Malawian culture. Whether you're looking for adventure or relaxation, Lake Malawi is a must-visit.

Go on Safari in Liwonde National Park

For an unforgettable wildlife experience, head to Liwonde National Park, one of Malawi’s best safari destinations. The park is home to elephants, hippos, crocodiles, and even reintroduced cheetahs and lions, making it a fantastic spot for game drives and boat safaris. The Shire River, which flows through the park, provides an excellent opportunity to see hippos and elephants up close while enjoying a peaceful boat ride. Visitors can also explore the park on guided walking safaris, offering a unique and immersive way to experience Malawi’s diverse wildlife and lush landscapes.

Hike to the Peaks of Mount Mulanje

For outdoor enthusiasts, Mount Mulanje offers some of the best hiking in Africa. Rising over 3,000 metres, this majestic mountain range is filled with dramatic peaks, lush valleys, and scenic waterfalls. The Chambe Plateau provides stunning panoramic views, while longer treks lead to the highest peak, Sapitwa, meaning ‘unreachable’ in the local language. Hikers can stay overnight in rustic mountain huts, experiencing the fresh mountain air and the breathtaking beauty of the landscape. Whether you're a casual hiker or a serious mountaineer, Mount Mulanje is an incredible place to explore.
