Does anyone know the facts about Bilharzia in Lake Malawi? Is it a real problem, or is it limited to very specific areas? If so, which areas are OK?
Also, what about the crocodile attacks off Likoma Island? Are they isolated incidents? Where are the areas which are OK?
Where are the best dive sites in the lake? Is August a good time to go diving?
Any other info about Malawi would be appreciated - where to go, where to stay, etc. I am thinking of doing Nkhata Bay, Likoma Island and Livingstonia. I have about 2 and a half weeks.
