JACANA
JACANA
Classic Wilderness Camp
Situated just outside the Moremi Game Reserve, Jacana Camp is set in one of the most densely populated areas for the beautiful red lechwe, sitatunga antelope and Wattled Crane. It is a true water camp, offering mokoro and walking safaris all year round, as well as game drives when the floodwaters have receded – generally between October and April.
Big game is found regularly in the area, depending on water levels, such as elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo, while birdlife is abundant; enthusiasts can spot Pel’s Fishing Owl as well as Greater and Lesser Jacanas.
Accommodation is in five Meru-style tents, each raised on a wooden deck with wonderful views over the floodplains. The ensuite bathroom is enclosed but roofless. The main dining area is on an elevated wooden deck between two enormous sycamore trees, and surrounded by dense wild date palms.
Downstairs, there is a cosy pub and lounge, with a large viewing deck, and an open area to sit around the fire under the stars. This camp can be blocked off for groups of six or more with no surcharge, making it perfect for a private group experience.
