OVERVIEW ON XUGANA ISLAND LODGE IN OKAVANGO DELTA

Xugana Island Lodge accommodates just 16 guests in large raised reed and thatch lagoon facing chalets (eight of them), with en-suite facilities and private viewing decks situated on the shaded fringe of the island. An open boma and al fresco dining area overlooks the expanse of pristine water that makes up the permanent Delta. The lounge, bar and dining areas are set back under an Ebony and African Mangosteen tree canopy in open sided thatched structures, and the swimming pool, located within the mature gardens in the center of the island, is a perfect place to relax.

Location Of Xugana Island Lodge

Xugana Island Lodge is situated on a private concession just outside and bordering Moremi Game Reserve. The lodge takes full advantage of the this section of the Okavango Delta which is widely accepted as being the most spectacular permanent water site in the entire delta, which in the midst of the Kalahari sands, is Africa’s largest and most awe-inspiring oasis. The Okavango River rises in the highlands of Angola yet never reaches the sea; instead its immense waters empty over the sands of the Kalahari where its great desert thirst is quenched in a wilderness of fresh water lagoons, channels and islands.

Safari Experience At Xugana Island Lodge

Xugana Island Lodge is primarily a water based camp. The activities on offer include the mokoro safari – definite ‘must do’ for all guests visiting the Okavango Delta – a dug out canoe which is ‘poled’ along by your guide is a favorite method of exploring the waterways. Boating safaris operate on the main waterways and lagoons offer excellent bird watching and water based wildlife viewing with fishing as add on activity option. Walking safaris are gaining popularity in this part of the Delta – the feeling of being on foot in Africa’s wilderness, exploring the flora and fauna in a remarkable experience – perhaps the most exciting way of viewing game with an expert guide.

Guests can either explore the delta by motorboat, mokoro, or take leisurely walks on surrounding islands in the concession.

Birdwatching opportunities are outstanding, and fishing for bream and tigerfish too during your botswana adventure safaris.
