Located in the northern region of the Okavango Delta, the camp is situated within a game-rich concession, which is home to elephants, buffalos and big cats. This makes it an ideal place for adventuring out on safari, either by land, water or even by air.
Having just three tents within the camp, this little African-inspired sanctuary combines comfort with luxury. Each spacious tent has an ensuite bathroom with an indoor and outdoor shower, plus a bathtub. They also come with their own separate plunge pool and sunken sundeck for during the hot summer days and a cosy fireplace for those cold winter evenings. There is a separate lounge and dining area surrounded by ebony, mangosteen and wild fig trees, where you can enjoy your deliciously prepared dinners whilst overlooking the breathtaking lagoon.

How this resort makes your trip more responsible
At Wayfairer, we always aim to work with accommodations that share our values. North Island Okavango is committed to making a positive impact on the people and wildlife of the area. The accommodation is part of the Natural Selection group, which has set up a range of conservation initiatives, including “Wild Vision”, which aims to bring efficient on-site eye testing and eyeglass distribution to remote schools to reduce delayed development that early onset vision impairment can cause. Their “Communal Herding for Livestock and Wildlife Protection” programme has helped to safeguard cattle, create employment, reduce the retaliatory killing of lions and restore overgrazed landscapes.
North Island Okovango is also 100% solar-powered and uses environmentally friendly air-conditioning to help reduce any negative impact on the environment.
