Duba Plains Camp

Duba Plains Camp is one of the most remote camps in the northwest Okavango Delta. Located on a tree-covered island this 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 safari at Duba Plains Camp starts by tracking down one of the mammoth buffalo herds to see whether the lions are on the prowl.  However this concession 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.

Birdlife is abundant and impressive, 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 (which often track buffalo or various lion prides around the concession), leisurely nature walks and Mokoro trips during the annual flooding of the Okavango Delta Floodplains – usually between May and September.

A wonderful and exciting camp particularly if you want to see big cats in action.  Superb guiding.
