Journey to the heart of the legendary Okavango Delta, to an authentic safari camp set in the pristine Private Kwara Reserve. Splash Camp is built around a pan that attracts a variety of animals year-round and boasts incredible views of an area known for the big water crossings that have to be negotiated to reach the camp. Historically, this was the first place that those traveling from Maun to the Delta would hit significant water, and 'Splash' became a short-hand nickname for the area.

The Private Kwara Reserve shares an aquatic boundary with the renowned Moremi Game Reserve and features both permanent and seasonal flood plains and extensive bush wilderness. Enjoy the quintessential Delta experience of a  mokoro  (traditional canoe) ride and explore the area’s labyrinths of permanent water channels and secret islands.

Go on game drives with a guide-and-tracker team, and be on the lookout for predators like cheetahs, leopards, wild dogs, and lions. Hop on a boat for a unique perspective of the active wildlife at the water’s edge. If you visit Splash Camp between August and December, you will be able to reach fascinating heronries located in nearby lagoons – a worthwhile experience for avid birdwatchers.
