This stunning camp is nestled on an island surrounded by mesmerizing landscapes and tranquil waterways. Relax during the afternoon on the daybed on your private veranda, soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. In the flood season, you might catch a glimpse of spotted-neck otters swimming gracefully and enjoying their feast. Let the harmonious chorus of birdlife fill your senses, and as night descends, be lulled to sleep by the soothing sounds of hippos, occasionally pierced by the powerful roar of a lion echoing through the night as he calls to his pride.
Field Notes
SPECIAL ENCOUNTERS
With more than 400 bird species, birding at Duba Plains is unmatched. Brilliant flashes of color, like the vibrant Malachite kingfisher darting past, add to the spectacle. On game drives, thrilling moments await as you encounter the resident Big Cats that roam freely through this expansive wilderness.

Safari experience
What makes the Duba Plains concession unlike any other in Africa is the topography of the changing fault lines. The concession is raised relative to its surrounding areas providing open plains in the Okavango Delta area. In season, both predators and prey, from lions to hippos to elephants, migrate and congregate on the remaining land resulting in some dramatic predator hunting. Birders can spot about 100 species over a 3 night stay here. Red lechwe antelope are now by far the most dominant large mammal with estimates of 20,000 placing the numbers as the highest in southern Africa. As the floodwaters begin to reach their peak levels, iconic images of lechwe running through the water or lions swimming become more common. There are plenty of herbivore grazers and their young to be seen, including warthog and kudu.
Nestled within the unspoiled wilderness of the Okavango Delta, with sweeping vistas of floodplains teeming with iconic African wildlife, there exists no other private safari experience in Botswana quite like this
