The Lake Malawi National Park is a World Heritage Site and the first freshwater marine reserve on earth. The camps on the islands of  Mumbo and Domwe are luxurious yet rustic. They are located within exclusive concession areas, guaranteeing privacy in paradise.

The warm, fresh water, the massive jumbles of underwater boulders and the myriad tropical fish create a magical swimming pool, and the opportunity to try sea kayaking, snorkeling and SCUBA diving in a beautiful and friendly environment.

Mvuu offers game drives, boat trips on the Shire River (boasting Africa's densest hippo and crocodile population), an incredible floral diversity, and some of the best bird watching in Southern Africa (record of 266 species in two days).
