                <description><![CDATA[Cape Maclear on the southern lakeshore of Lake Malawi, about a 4hr journey south of the capital Lilongwe, is a magical and mystical enclave that abounds with small secluded beaches, where most are used by local fishermen and their families to sort fish, or are used by local children as a giant paddling pool. A few are attached to backpackers lodges that become bars and clubs in the evenings where you can dance for hours to South African house music or see live performances from Malawian artists. An African beach can't get much better than sitting on white sand, under a shady tree, looking out on a sun-kissed lake, sipping a cold Kuche Kuche beer. It has an extremely chilled atmosphere you can do everything: Take trips out to do some fishing, do some watersports, have a bbq on the beach, head down to the Lake of Stars music festival (in September), or simply do nothing. I've had some amazing times and met amazing people. It is one of the most incredible places in the world, where tourists, travellers and locals mix freely and is a must-do stop-off for any traveller.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This is a little island with a small eco-lodge.  There are only sex tents each with ensuite 'compost' loo and bucket shower looking over the lake.  There is no one else living on the island except the birds... kayaking, strolling, sun bathing and generally doing very little is what it's all about.  If you are looking for a totally un-commercialized beach holiday somewhere different - this is it.]]></description>
