Lake Malawi National Park protects part of a vast freshwater ecosystem famous for endemic cichlid fish. Around Cape Maclear, visitors combine swimming, kayaking, hiking and boat trips with village life along the shore.
Use licensed boat operators, wear life jackets and follow current health guidance for freshwater swimming. Responsible visits also respect fishing communities and avoid damaging breeding habitat.
