Banoka Bush Camp only opened in September 2010. It was built along the tree line overlooking a lagoon; the whole camp is raised off the ground to take in the view. Accommodation is in ten en-suite tented rooms complete with private verandas. There are two family tents which accommodate two adults and two children each. The main area consists of a bar, lounge, dining area and plunge pool and deck. There is an open campfire area to relax in and discuss the day's adventures. The camp is 100% solar powered.
The camp is located in the Khwai Community Concession, one of the most diverse areas in northern Botswana, which seldom disappoints when it comes to producing extraordinary wildlife experiences. The Khwai Community Concession lies in the north-eastern corner of the Okavango Delta adjoining the Moremi Game Reserve. The camp is named in honour of the River San, or Banoka, ancestors of the Khoi and the earliest settlers of the Okavango Delta.
The life source for this area is the Khwai River - the northernmost "finger" of the Okavango Delta alluvial fan. It supports large animals such as hippo and crocodile with buffalo and red lechwe often seen grazing along the fringe. The area is a mix of woodland, floodplains, swamps and grassland, making it a paradise for zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, elephants, leopards, lions, wild dogs, baboons and many more.
Game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, bush walks, boat trips, mokoro rides (traditional dugout canoe).
