Camp Okavango
Set deep within Botswana’s Okavango Delta—designated the 1,000th UNESCO World Heritage Site—Camp Okavango offers a rare and immersive experience in one of the world’s last true inland water wildernesses. Surrounded by an intricate maze of channels, floodplains, and islands, this eco-sensitive lodge is designed for year-round exploration of a unique wetland environment. The region is a sanctuary for elusive species such as the semi-aquatic sitatunga antelope and the rare Pel’s fishing owl, making it a haven for wildlife lovers and birders alike.
Camp Okavango accommodates just 24 guests in 11 spacious safari suites and one exclusive family suite, creating an atmosphere of intimacy and privacy. Each suite is built on raised wooden platforms beneath a canopy of thick Delta vegetation. Inside, modern furnishings and natural textures blend harmoniously with the surrounding wilderness. Sliding doors open onto private viewing decks, offering panoramic views of the Delta’s reeds and waterways—a perfect place to enjoy sunrise coffee or watch the afternoon light shimmer across the floodplains. Guests staying three nights or more have the option to spend a night on the lodge’s new sleepout deck—an unforgettable opportunity to fall asleep beneath a blanket of stars and wake up to the sounds of nature all around.
The main lodge is a multi-tiered, open-air space thoughtfully designed to capture the atmosphere and soul of the Delta. A network of walkways connects the various spaces, including two comfortable lounges, a dining area, a library, a self-service bar, and a boutique curio shop. Wooden ramps lead to a lower-level deck with open-air fire pits and plush seating areas for evening storytelling or peaceful reflection. A separate pool deck features a rim-flow swimming pool and a shaded thatched lounge, ideal for relaxing on warmer days between excursions.
Facilities at Camp Okavango include:
- Eleven safari suites and one two-bedroom family suite
- Private open-air viewing decks for each suite
- Camp Okavango sleepout deck for stargazing (available for 3+ night stays)
- Two lounges, a dining area, library, bar, and gift shop
- Fire pits and shaded outdoor seating areas
- Rim-flow swimming pool and thatched summer lounge
- Eco-sensitive design and elevated walkways throughout the camp

ACTIVITIES
As a water-based lodge, Camp Okavango focuses entirely on activities that take full advantage of its wetland surroundings. Guided mokoro (dugout canoe) excursions offer a slow, silent journey through lily-covered channels, bringing guests up close to frogs, birds, and even shy antelope along the reed-fringed banks. For broader exploration, motorboat safaris allow guests to travel deeper into the Delta, winding through papyrus tunnels and across open lagoons, with the chance of encountering elephants bathing or crocodiles basking on sandbanks.
Wilderness bush walks are a highlight at Camp Okavango. Conducted on nearby islands by experienced guides, these offer a unique opportunity to track some of the larger terrestrial animals that inhabit the region, while also learning about plants, birdlife, and smaller creatures often overlooked during vehicle-based safaris.
Birdwatchers will be in their element, with abundant sightings of herons, jacanas, fish eagles, and more elusive species like the Pel’s fishing owl. Catch-and-release fishing is available seasonally and offers the chance to land species such as bream and the spirited tigerfish.
Please note that due to its location in the heart of the Delta, Camp Okavango does not offer game drives.
