Pumulani, "the place of rest", is situated on the westside of the Nankumba Peninsula in the south end of Lake Malawi – romantically called “The Lake of Stars”. Pumulani is uniquely situated within the only national park in Malawi that incorporates the lake. This park, now a World Heritage Site, was established to protect the cichlid fish of the area.
