Duba Plains Camp is
one of the most remote camps in the
Okavango Delta,
Botswana. Located on a tree-covered island in a 30
000-hectare concession known as the Kwedi Reserve,
Duba Plains Camp is a
small, intimate camp renowned for its unrivalled
access to the titanic struggle for survival between
lion and
buffalo.
Accommodation at
Duba Plains
Camp consists of six roomy tents with
en-suite bathrooms, outside showers and verandas
with panoramic vistas of the
Okavango Delta floodplains. The thatched
lounge, dining and bar areas are raised along with
the pool on wooden platforms to better appreciate
the breathtaking views.
A luxury African safari at
Duba Plains Camp starts by tracking down
one of the enormous buffalo
herds to see whether the lions
are on the prowl.
But Duba Plains Camp
has more to offer than just lion
and buffalo, with herds
of elephant feeding on the islands and hippo wading
out into the deeper channels. Tsessebe and blue
wildebeest dot the plains, while red lechwe are
found on the fringe of the wetter floodplains.
Spotted hyaena can also be seen in their own age-old
conflict with the lions.
Bird life is abundant and impressive in the
Okavango Delta, with
Rosy-throated Longclaw, Slaty Egret and Wattled
Crane often sighted.
Duba Plains Camp
offers a variety of activities including day and
night game drives, often tracking the buffalo herd
around the concession, and leisurely nature walks.
Boat cruises are dependent on the seasonal water
levels in the Duba area.
