Location
Kaparota Camp is located in the North Side
of the Okavango
Delta and borders the Moremi
Game Reserve, in a private concession
called the Kwedi Concession. The island is
covered with huge sausage trees, and a small
channel runs in front of the camp. Lion, Leopard,
Cheetah, Elephant and Red Lechwe are some
of the game that may be viewed. Birding in
the area is incredible, and species include
White Headed Vulture, African Hawk Eagle,
Roufusnaped Lark, Meyers Parrot, and Pels
fishing owl.

species of wildlife - Red Lechwe, Waterbuck,

Wildebeest and Tsessebe, who roam the open
plains. Herds of Buffalo and Elephant occur
here, along with the predators - Lion, Leopard,
Wild Dog and Cheetah. Guests who enjoy their
birding will love the combination of all the
Okavango water "specials" with acacia
and dry woodland species. Birding

include White Headed Vulture, African Hawk
Eagle, Roufusnaped Lark, Meyers Parrot, and
Pels fishing owl.
Facilities
Five meru-style en suite tents are raised
up on decks, and have wonderful views over
the surrounding islands and floodplains. The
bathrooms are enclosed, but roofless. The
thatched dining and pub area is connected
to the opposite island by a walkway bridge,
and is raised on a teak deck overlooking the
channel. Lantern-lit dinners are served under
the tree canopy.
Additional Information
Kaparota offers game drives, guided walks
(at the final discretion of the camp manager),
and mekoro rides. Game drives are conducted
in open 4x4 Land Rovers with experienced guides.
Night drives are possible nearly all year,
but may be restricted for a few months in
the middle of each year if we have extremely
high flood levels. The variety of wildlife
here is stunning. Guests can go out by boat
in the morning and see Hippos, Crocodiles,
Red Lechwe and all the aquatic wildlife -
and then travel out by Land Rover in the afternoon
to see Elephant, Sable and all the dry savannah
game. Mokoro excursions on shallow floodplains,
and boating in the deeper channels and lagoons
are available year round. Fishing is also
offered.
