Wy we Love Kwetsani Camp

Exclusive access to the Delta’s waters and floodplains means exceptional and diverse game viewing, both on land and water. Lechwe, reedbuck and tsessebe are seen in particularly large numbers on the floodplains, with hippos and crocodiles in the channels and lagoons. Nearby Hunda Island (the largest landmass on the Jao Reserve) is home to iconic African game – giraffe, wildebeest, zebra and impala, and their predators, chiefly lion, leopard, and spotted hyena.

Game Viewing Guided game drives explore the mosaic of Delta habitats, and let you come closer to some of the resident wildlife. Night Drives A whole new safari experience awaits after dark. Go in search of the fascinating creatures of the night. Boating on the Delta Boating is another way to view wildlife along the waterways, and can yield fabulous sightings of hippo and crocodile and perhaps even sitatunga. Birding at Kwetsani The Jao Concession has outstanding birding opportunities including the famous Pel’s fishing-owl. With both water and land activities, opportunities to add to your list are excellent. Mokoro Adventures While floating silently on a traditional mokoro, keep an eye out for tiny reed frogs and other speciality sightings of the Delta. Look Up! Learn more about the awe-inspiring southern night sky on a night drive or while relaxing around the campfire.
