Just north of Mangochi, on the palm fringed southern shore of lake Malawi, an extraordinary lakeside paradise resort - Club Makokola - awaits you.
Club Makokola has all you need in a premier holiday resort including restaurant bars, swimming pools, sporting and games facilities - Excursions and charters and it's very own Premier Golf Club.
Lake Malawi has always attracted more than its share of reminiscent travellers. From the time of the Victorian missionaries and traders, whose little steamers ploughed its waters in the cause of christianity and hard cash, the accounts of visitors to the Lake are distinguished by an attempt to pin down an essential mysteriousness, part of its unchanging quality which has always managed to elude final definition.
The area encompasses the Nankumba Peninsula and also various other offshore islands. This is the magnificent Cape Maclear where the scenery is magnificent and where a succession of sandy bays are interspersed with hills and rocky outcrops which rise steeply from crystal clear waters. From Makanjira on the cast coast a lonely Arab dhow sets out on its periodic trip towards Salima, the last of a whole race of dhows which in the 19th century, linked the pre-colonial interior with the ivory and slave markets of the Indian Ocean.
Nature has endowed Lake Malawi with the richest variety of tropical fish of any freshwater lake in the world. Up to 500 species of cichlids are unique to these waters. Fresh lake Chambo is a famous and delicious Malawi dish. In 1980 an area of the southern part of this huge inland sea which is Africa's third largest lake, was proclaimed the world's first Marine World Heritage Site in a Rift Lake.
The cries of fish eagles, fishermen in dugouts silhouetted against the evening skies, and the warm, sleepy atmosphere, make it impossible not to relax. The Lakeshore is an excellent place for doing nothing but absorbing Malawi’s warmth and beauty.
