Jacana Camp, Luxury tailor-made holidays in Botswana

Situated on Moremi Game Reserve's boundary, in the private Jao Concession, Jacana Camp is located on a beautiful island and surrounded by the classic seasonally inundated Okavango floodplains and the papyrus swamps.

Jacana's five Meru-style tents are built on wooden decks to accentuate the views overlooking the floodplains. Each tent has an en-suite bathroom which is enclosed but roofless allowing for showers by starlight - or by dappled sunlight and shade. Jacana has a plunge pool for cooling off in the midday sun. The main dining area is on an elevated platform between two magnificent sycomore fig trees and surrounded by dense wild date palms. Downstairs, there is a cosy bar and lounge with an area for an open fire under the stars.

Activities include mokoro trips and walking safaris all year round, as well as game drives when the floodwaters have receded - generally between September and May. There are two platform hides in the concession.

Jacana camp is set in one of the most densely populated wetland areas for sitatunga and red lechwe. All the big animals can be found regularly in the area including elephant, lion, leopard and buffalo. The birdlife is abundant; enthusiasts can spot Pel's Fishing-Owl as well as African and Lesser Jacanas and a host of other Okavango specials such as Slaty Egret, African Pygmy-Goose and Western Banded Snake-Eagle.
