Destinations »Malawi»Lake Malawi

Lake Malawi, nearly 600 kilometers long and up to 80 kilometers wide, dominates the countryside. The Rift Valley is an ancient geological formation with fertile soils. Everywhere you go in Malawi one sees evidence of this. Throw down a seed and a plant or a vegetable grows. When David Livingstone arrived at the lakeshore in 1861, he was the first foreign explorer to see the lake. Lake Malawi offers endless pristine white sandy beaches, great snorkeling, and superb bird watching, especially in some of the indigenous inland forests.
