Is the Blue Zebra Island Lodge for Me?

Located on the secluded Nankoma Island within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Lake Malawi National Park, Blue Zebra Island Lodge offers a tranquil escape. This eco-conscious Malawi lodge operates primarily on solar power, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint and a sustainable stay.

As one of the premier Malawi safari lodges in the region, Blue Zebra provides a selection of unique accommodation options. Choose from spacious safari-style chalets with private balconies, a secluded forest cottage, and a superior family option. This intimate setup, characteristic of the finest Malawi safari lodges out there, ensures a personalised experience while enjoying stunning views over the lake.

At Blue Zebra Malawi, your days can be spent enjoying the infinity pool, indulging in spa treatments, or socialising at the cocktail bar and restaurant. The core ethos of this Malawi lodge is its deep dedication to conservation, working in partnership with the country’s Department of National Parks and Wildlife to protect the region’s unique biodiversity.

The location of this Malawi lodge allows access to stunning nature trails for walking safaris. Explore the fascinating landscape of Nankoma Island while on these trails; you may spot elusive duikers and bushbucks. Hikes can be done to breathtaking panoramic views.

This Malawi lodge is perfect for birders. Venturing out into this natural paradise, you may spot African fish eagles, one of the around 300 bird species that call Nankoma Island home.

Excellent snorkelling conditions can be found just a few steps away from this Malawi lodge, with snorkel equipment available to use. Snorkelling and diving trips to other islands can also be arranged.

As a standout among Malawi safari lodges, it is the ultimate destination for active couples, families, and first-time visitors seeking a perfect blend of aquatic adventure and serene relaxation.
