Little Sable

Little Sable is an intimate lodge situated on the edge of the Okavango Delta in the Khwai Private Reserve, bordering the renowned Moremi Game Reserve. Surrounded by sprawling grasslands and a network of lily-filled waterways, it offers unparalleled opportunities to observe an abundance of wildlife in their natural habitat. Khwai’s wetlands and rivers are home to hippos and crocodiles, its woodlands hide shy sable antelope and leopard, while lion and cheetah patrol the open floodplains for prey. The bird life is amazing, and the area has a reputation for rarities like wild dogs, serval cats, honey badgers, and the ever-elusive pangolin.

Little Sable’s private setting allows for close-up sightings and night drives, both of which make for more detailed and atmospheric experiences. Guided walks and canoe trips (when water levels allow) add to the ways you can experience the landscape. On mekoro and boat trips, look out for aquatic birds like jacana, tiny painted reed frogs, elephants wading in the water, and gorgeous water lilies.

The camp offers comfort and convenience, including convivial campfires, en suite tented accommodation with private outdoor showers, and suppers under the stars. The open-sided game-viewing vehicles are well-suited for the task of comfortable game viewing, taking a maximum of six guests, offering every passenger a “window” seat. To appreciate the meandering waterways and the wildlife below from a different perspective, we suggest booking a scenic helicopter flight during your stay.
