Lebala means ‘wide open spaces’, and the elegant Lebala Camp is located in 2,320 kms2 of private unfenced wilderness area in the Kwando Reserve in the Okavango Delta’s grasslands. Set amongst vast plains scattered with Illala Palms, Lebala Camp has a swimming pool and a game viewing hide on site. The wetlands and flood plains around Lebala offer a wonderful variety of wildlife with excellent sightings of elephant, hippo, lechwe, zebra, giraffe, impala, wildebeest, kudu, tsessebe, roan, sable, buffalo and the ever-present predators; wild dog, lion, cheetah and hyena. After dark, spotlights are switched on and the game drives expose guests to nocturnal sightings of rare and elusive species such as leopard, Selous Mongoose, small spotted genet and aardwolf, to name a few. Nocturnal bird species include Natal Nightjar, Pennantwinged Nightjar and a large variety of owls.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
