Jacana Camp

Tented safari camp overlooking the flood plains of the Jao Reserve in the Okavango Delta.

  • Activities In The Wild - a true water camp, it offers mokoro game viewing, fishing and walking safaris all year round.

  • No Missing Out - all the big game can be found in the area and the birdlife is excellent.

  • Location - deep in the Okavango; where narrow water channels meander through papyrus beds.

Jacana Camp is a water-oriented camp situated outside the Moremi Game Reserve on the Jao flats. The camp is set in one of the most densely populated wetland areas for Sitatunga and Red Lechwe and abounds with Hippo, Crocodile and the big game.

The area is host to a variety of wetland bird species, including Wattled Cranes, Pel's Fishing Owls, both species of Jacanas as well as other seldom sighted species such as Rails, Crakes and Moorhens.

The camp's facilities include a plunge pool, curio shop and gazebo with hammocks. There is a raised hide about 40 minutes from camp which can be used by small groups for sleep outs.

Water-based activities include fishing (basic equipment is provided by the camp), boating trips in the waterways to the east of the camp and water game viewing in a mokoro (traditional dug-out canoe).

Walking safaris are offered year round. Depending on water levels, game drives and night drives are available as the floodwaters recede from about September to May.

Children over the age of 8 years are welcome.
