Explore lake Malawi

Take a scenic drive from Tongole Wilderness Lodge to Blue Zebra Island Lodge, nestled on a tranquil private island in Lake Malawi. This hidden paradise is perfect for nature lovers seeking both adventure and relaxation. Located on Nankoma Island, Blue Zebra Lodge is a haven for diverse flora and fauna, with ecosystems that transform dramatically throughout the year.

After the first rains, usually in late November, the island bursts to life with lush greenery as trees bloom and the lake’s rising waters enhance its beauty. By April, as the rains subside, the crystal-clear waters reveal colorful rocky outcrops, inviting you to explore Lake Malawi’s aquatic habitats. In the dry season, the island offers clearer views, ideal for birdwatching and hiking its scenic nature trails.

Whether lush or dry, Nankoma Island is a spectacular and ever-changing natural escape.
