Shinde Island Camp Ngamiland
Botswana

Accommodation Botswana

Shinde Island Camp is nestled on a lush palm dotted island in the heart of the northern Okavango Delta. Located at the edge of a lagoon, it is surrounded by clear waterways, which flow over yellow sands and past palm-fringed islands teeming with birdlife and game. This is a photographer's delight. Its remoteness has ensured that the innocent wildlife has not been subject to the pressures of mass tourism. The island is especially favoured by members of the antelope family, including the elusive sitatunga whose elongated and splayed hooves enable it to walk on the unstable beds of reeds floating on the water. A well-equipped delta craft may take you on an interesting trip where you will see fascinating breeding colonies of herons, egrets, pelicans and storks. Your guide will arrange walks; show you insects, as well as a wide variety of bird life and game. Shinde's abundant wildlife and the silent waters of the Okavango combine to make your stay a rare experience indeed!

Accommodation:

Nine large, twin-bedded safari style tents with windows. Private en-suite bathroom with hot and cold running water, a lavabo, shower, and flush toilet. Even hot water bottles to warm your bed at night during winter. Shinde accommodates only 16 guests in total. Shinde Camp, commonly regarded as the finest location in the Okavango Delta, has developed a section of the camp for private use ~ The Enclave. Here, there are three new tents, elevated on teak platforms overlooking a vast papyrus and reed expanse dotted with palm islands where frequent sightings of the elusive Sitatunga occur. Guests may reserve the Enclave section of Shinde Camp for private use. The Enclave includes a private boma and a private bar / dining area / lounge overlooking the lagoon and a waiter/barman specifically assigned to this facility. A senior guide hosts guests and will escort them on private game activities: morning, afternoon and evening game drives, game walks, mokoros, motor boats and excellent fishing. The minimum reservation is for three nights. The Enclave is contracted on a flat fee basis; occupancy of this exclusive area is limited to six guests. The rates for private occupancy of the Enclave are seasonal.
