Okonjima Bush Camp is the newest addition to Okonjima and offers an alternative to the ever popular Okonjima Main Camp.
Okonjima Bush Camp is situated on a wilderness area approximately 3km from the main camp and consists of eight luxury thatched African Chalets. Guests at both Okonjima Main Camp and Okonjima Bush Camp can experience the work done by the Africat Foundation.
Apart from the bush camp, there is also an education and research centre on the property, as well as rehabilitation camps for various animals. Guests at Okonjima have the opportunity to experience these cats first hand, and will also learn about what is being done by the Africat foundation to ensure the survival of these animals in Namibia.
For complete privacy the chalets at Okonjima Bush Camp are situated a minimum of 80 meters apart. The chalets are a combination of earthy ochre walls, and khaki green canvas, under a thatched roof. With half the chalet made from canvas the entire front of the chalet can be rolled up at night allowing the cool breeze and sounds of the Namibian bush into the bungalow. The less adventurous can securely close the sides and sleep safely in the knowledge that the outside world is outside.
While building Okonjima Bush Camp all the experience gained from several years of operating Okonjima Main Camp was put to good use as the Bush Camp is probably one of the most special lodges in Namibia. Couple this with the good work done by the Africat Foundation and the Okonjima Bush Camp is a must on any visit to Namibia.
