Eagle Island Camp is a water based camp situated in the Central Okavango Delta. Situated on the island of Xaxaba and surrounded by Illala Palms, the Eagle Island Camp overlooks a surrounding lagoon fed by the tranquil waterways of the Delta. Shaded by a canopy of indigenous trees, the camp provides a cool retreat from the African sun. Its striking natural beauty and remote tranquillity truly make it an indulgent paradise.
Eagle Island Camp is one of the Okavango Delta's most pristine natural locations, a region of myriad waterways, palm-lined islands and vast floodplains. From
April through October the camp offers a choice of game viewing by mokoro (traditional dugout canoe), or in motorised boats, combined with walks on the
surrounding islands. In season, late afternoon romantic Sundowner cruises are offered on the surrounding lagoon.
When water levels are low (December through April), morning, afternoon and evening game drives are offered, giving guests the opportunity to fur ther explore the surrounding islands. For the more adventurous, safari walks are offered all year round.
At Eagle Island Camp all luxury tents are housed on raised wooden platforms, offering great views, and shaded by a traditional African thatch roof. The large private decks are furnished with easy chairs and a hammock, ideal for viewing wildlife, or for enjoying a private dinner in complete privacy. The tent interiors are luxuriously appointed with such comforts as an en suite bathroom, private fully stocked mini bar, four poster bed complete with mosquito netting, as well as a discreet air conditioning. For your convenience, in-room safes are provided for the safekeeping of all cash, travel documents and other such articles.
Helicopter excursions are offered all year round to the more remote parts of the Okavango Delta. These excursions, if shared, are usually combined with either
our boat or vehicle activities depending on the time of year. Private game viewing activities and private dining experiences are also available.
Private fishing excursions are also offered in season (May through October) on a catch and release basis. The area offers exceptionally high quality game viewing, with prolific bird life and animal sightings. It is also home to one of the most romantic bars in the world, the Fish Eagle Bar, as voted by the New York Times. The magnificent sunsets can be enjoyed from the Bar, or from the raised deck overlooking the lagoon.
