The Makonde Plateau is a roughly rectangular, rising from the coast west of Mtwara. There are steep escarpments along its western edge and along the Ruvuma River to the south. The Lukuledi River runs along its northern edge. The eastern portion is dissected by many stream valleys, while the western end is higher, reaching 900 meters elevation.

Newala is the plateau´s main town. It is located on the southwest corner of the plateau, and has expansive vistas over the plains to the west, and south across the Ruvuma River into Mozambique." - (en.wikipedia.org 12.02.2022)
