| Lake Malawi, World’s Most Beautiful Place to Visit |
|
| Lake Malawi, the third biggest lake in Africa, is one of the world’s fresh water bodies with endemic fish and beautiful scenery. Lake Malawi’s soft sandy beaches lapped by the crystal clear fresh waters and shaded by majestic palms is Malawi’s major tourist attraction. The lake stretches for over 580 km from north to south and is 75 km across at its widest point. One of the unique places to visit on the lake is the Marine Park at Cape Maclear which is home to over 1,000 species of fish and wasdeclared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1984. Snorkeling on this part of the Lake is very much like snorkeling in an aquarium due to the numerous varieties of brightly coloured and patterned cichlids. The ideal time to enjoy this adventure is between the months of August to December when visibility can reach up to 30 metres. |
| |
| The beauty of the lake attracted recognition by Yahoo Travel who in their survey of lakes rated Lake Malawi as one of the 12 “lakes to see in the world.” The other lakes are: Crater Lake (United States), Peyto Lake (Canada), Taal Lake (Philippines), Lake At i t lán (Guatemala) , Loch Lomond (Scotland), Lake Garda ( Italy), Lake Annecy (France), Plitvice Lakes (Croatia), Lake Nakuru (Kenya), Lake Matheson ( New Zealand) and Lake Bled (Slovenia). The Yahoo report concludes that Lake Malawi and the other 11 lakes “go to all the right extremes—highest, deepest, and clearest—and showcase nature at its most spectacular.” |
| |
| Located in a depression 701 metres below sea level, Lake Malawi is positioned at the crossroads of Malawi, Mozambique and Tanzania, and supports hundreds of local villages with its rich underwater stock of fish. |
| |
| Two big events not to be missed on Lake Malawi are the Lake Malawi Yachting Marathon and the Lake of Stars Music Festival. |
| |
The Lake Malawi Yachting Marathon is the longest freshwater yachting race in the world (over 500 km). This anual five-day event, which is really more of an endurance test than a yacht race, takes place each year in July.
Already in its 25th year, the race has grown steadily in popularity, attracting participants from all over the world. |
| |
| The Lake of Stars Music Festival is a four-day international music festival which is one of the major events for entertainment held on the shores of Lake Malawi. It is held every year at different hotels along the Lake. It attracts tourists from as far away as the United Kinngdom. |
