Do
There is not much for a tourist to do in Mandimba, but for mountain biking enthusiasts there are some enjoyable routes through scenic villages. The terrain around is quite flat, making hiking or mountain climbing not really an option.
Buy
There is a thriving local market that sells all kinds of locally available produce (tomatoes, onions, lettuce, ground nuts, maize, etc. depending on the season), as well as simple construction supplies. Visitors are known to come in from Malawi to purchase new Chinese motorcycles available at rock bottom prices with the quality to match.
Eat
Several dining establishments are available for those who enjoy chicken and chips, locally-caught fish, beef purchased from the Namwera, Malawi Saturday market.
