Duba Plains Camp

Superior tented safari camp on an island in the Northern Okavango Delta.

  • Wildlife - home to lion, leopard, lechwe, elephant, and huge herds of buffalo, as well as a large variety of delta bird life.

  • Variety - since Duba has access to large islands, floodplains and marshes, the camp offers a diversity of experiences.

  • Exclusive - Duba's real treat is its exclusivity, and it is particularly suited to those who want to get away from it all.

Duba Plains is perhaps the Okavango Delta's most remote camp, located in a pristine area, which can only be reached by air. The camp is built on an island shaded by large ebony, fig and garcinia trees, and surrounded by expansive plains which are seasonally flooded - usually from about May to early October each year, depending on the rains in central Africa.

The Duba Plains Camp offers a variety of activities, ranging from game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, to walking safaris (at the manager's discretion) or mokoro excursions (water levels permitting). You can also take night drives, which often provide opportunities to photograph Africa's elusive nocturnal animals in action.

The wildlife at Duba Plains is fascinating. The vast open grasslands are often isolated from the mainland by deep waterways, so the variety of animals is not as high as in other areas within the Okavango. However, game viewing is a dramatic experience here as thousands of buffalo are hunted almost daily by up to 4 different prides of lions. Often the hunting is during the day - so you should have some great photo opportunities.

Lechwe, buffalo, elephant, tsessebe and warthog dot the savannah, and hippo are found in the deeper channels. There are often productive hyena dens in the area that offer great hyena cub viewing. Leopard are found on the forested islands.
