Selinda Camp is built on a shady island overlooking the waters of the dramatic Selinda Spillway, an ephemeral waterway which is the focal point in a vast private concession in northern Botswana.
The Selinda is characterised by its game-rich floodplains which are host to a variety of bird life (300+), antelope, zebra, cheetah, wild dog, lion and dry season elephant concentrations.
Nocturnal species could include serval, porcupine, springhare and possibly leopard.
|
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.
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.
