Lake Malawi

Lake Malawi has always appealed to me and I’ve yet to actually set eyes upon it’s shores. Known as “The Warm Heart of Africa”, Malawi offers good value and its famed friendliness extends to SA passport holders. Riding the Inyala Ferry or its replacement is a definite Bucket Lister!

  • Visas: SA passports get 90 days
  • Flights: TBC (also reachable overland)
  • Currency: R1 = 90.45 Kwacha
  • Costs: Cheap (But also TBC)

Visas

Malawi gives SA passport holders a 90 day stay without a visa.Â

Getting there

This is a toss up between expensive African flights or much longer overland options.
