Mayoka village is a must stay, it’s not really geared for kids as there’s no beach. For adults and young travellers its paradise! The lodge hangs on a cliff it was started 13 years ago. From the shower or rooms you can look down into the lake and see the small blue fishes play between the rocks. They offered some of the cheapest rates for their rooms and their food was the best we had in Malawi.
We went on a free boat trip they offer once a week for cliff diving, Fish Eagle feeding and beach games. The most amazing experience is seeing a Fish Eagle take a fish out of the water right in front of you! I don’t think anywhere else in the world will you see something like this.
As we head up north after our stay at the beautiful Mayoka village we had to sleep over Sangilo lodge just before the Malawi border with Tanzania owned by Mike. We were sitting having a beer when I noticed a sticker on the fridge with Ewan and Charley on it. The owner immediately said that they stayed over at his lodge when they did their Long Way down trip. So where did they sleep, I asked?
The last two bungalows next to yours was the answer from Mike the owner of the lodge. I had to go look, I could not miss the opportunity to stand at the same place legends walked and slept, and as I stood on the deck of the bungalow I could feel their presence, it’s hair raising, seriously it’s spiritual! I felt my skill level increase just standing there, it was stronger than religion!

Nuuskiering om te weet of die skeefgeboorde “casing” nog hou? Ongelooflike foto’s.
