Attraction Information
Lake Malawi National Park
Lake Malawi National Park was created in 1980 as the world’s first freshwater national park. It can be found on the southern shore of Lake Malawi, Africa’s third largest lake, which stretches for 600km (373 miles) and forms a natural border between Malawi, Tanzania and Mozambique. The park encompasses a wide variety of scenery, ranging from the wooded rocky mountains sloping down to the shores of the lake, to sandy coves and beaches. The lush vegetation is home to a range of wildlife including many species of bird and fish. The clear blue waters of the lake are popular for snorkelling and scuba diving, as well as sailing, kayaking and swimming. Within the park, visitors can stay at lodges to enjoy traditional Malawian hospitality and fresh fish from the lake.
