About this Likoma Island map poster
Likoma Island lies in Lake Malawi, much closer to the eastern, Mozambican shore than to the rest of Malawi. Together with the nearby island of Chizumulu, it forms a Malawian exclave surrounded by Mozambican waters. From above, the island is small and irregular, with rocky hills, sandy bays and open ground. It is surrounded on all sides by the wide freshwater of the lake.
The island is best known for St Peter's Cathedral, a large Anglican cathedral built in the early twentieth century by missionaries of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa. It is striking in scale for such a small island. Likoma is also known for its baobab trees and quiet beaches. It is reached by the lake ferry or by small plane.
A Likoma Island map poster is modest in detail but clear in shape. It shows an irregular outline, a small network of paths and tracks linking villages, and a few denser clusters near the main settlement. Wide open water surrounds it. At a broader framing, the poster also shows the nearby Mozambican coast and just how isolated the island is.

Village tracks
A modest network of paths and tracks links the island's villages. On the poster they form a light web of lines across rocky, open ground.
Cathedral quarter
St Peter's Cathedral stands near the island's main settlement. The surrounding lanes form one of the densest patches of the map, marking the island's historic centre.

Why Likoma Island
A map that means something
Likoma is a place few people visit by chance. For those with family ties, mission history or memories of the lake ferry, its outline carries real meaning. It also works simply as a clean island shape surrounded by water, calm and uncluttered on a wall.
