Eagle Island Camp

Location

Eagle Island Camp is situated on the island of Xaxaba and surrounded by Illala Palms, the camp overlooks a lagoon fed by the tranquil waterways of the Okavango Delta.

Accommodation and facilities

All luxury tents are housed on raised wooden platforms, offering great views, and shaded by a traditional African thatch roof.  The large private decks are furnished with easy chairs and a hammock, ideal for viewing wildlife, or for enjoying a private dinner in complete privacy. The tent interiors are luxuriously appointed with such comforts as an en suite bathroom, private fully stocked mini bar, four poster bed complete with mosquito netting, as well as a discreet air conditioning.

Eagle Island offers open-air and covered dining, bar and lounge areas and a viewing deck and fully stocked Fish Eagle Bar - an ideal venue to watch the sunset over the Delta.  Enjoy a night cap after dinner around the camp fire.

Activities and game viewing

Eagle Island Camp’s serene watery base lends itself to quiet relaxation, contemplation and reflection. If, however, you are looking for adventure and excitement then Eagle Island will not disappoint – from walking safaris on surrounding islands, where there is always the possibility of a close encounter, to mokoro and motor boat excursions around the myriad of waterways, the diversity and propensity of the wildlife will fascinate the most seasoned of travelers to Africa. During the months of November through March, when lower water levels make it possible to drive our open 4x4 vehicles off the island, guests can also enjoy the combined excitement of a game drive with water activity.

Naturally Wild's range of private exclusive services have been designed to enhance your experiences at Eagle Island – these include private scenic game-viewing flights over the miraculous Okavango Delta, private excursions to secret islands, intimate romantic dinners on your own tent deck and indulgent massages and body wraps surrounded by the pristine Botswana wilderness.

The area offers exceptionally high quality wildlife viewing with prolific birdlife and mammal sightings
