SELINDA CAMP
 
General Information

The camp is built on a shady island overlooking the waters of the eastern Selinda Spillway. Its 9 large, luxury tents are under cool thatch canopies, all with exceptional views across palm studded floodplains. Each tent has en-suite facilities, including a stone bath that is a highlight of the bathrooms. The bathroom is uniquely "open air" with lots of natural light, yet is screened and virtually bug-proof.
The main area comprises a series of expansive decks that invite soaking up the spectacular views and wildlife that are a visual constant of the camp. The design of the main area is such that there is never a barrier to these views: whether guests are relaxing in the lounge, having brunch under the cool shade of the uniquely designed thatched roof, or sampling the fine cuisine of a 3-course dinner on the open "star deck". Set apart from the main area is the photo/art gallery built above a temperature-controlled wine cellar and curio shop. Guests can also enjoy a small plunge pool and the traditional campfire.

     
Highlights & Activities

Daily activities revolve around morning, afternoon and night game drives. Short walks from camp are encouraged. Accompanied by an armed professional guide, these walks give guests the chance to "touch the Earth" and be introduced to some of Africa's less prominent.
