Desert Experience
MAKGADIKGADI GETAWAY!
@ CAMP KALAHARI
Camp Kalahari is the best way to experience the Makgadikgadi in a fresh and affordable way. It is the ideal camp for those who want fun, comfort, style and adventure. Nestled amongst the acacias and Mokolwane palms of Hyena island, on the edge of the ancient super lake and adjacent to the Makgadikgadi National Park. Camp Kalahari has twin and double bedded meru tents, replete with comfy beds, toasty bedrolls, crunchy cotton sheets, stripy African blankets and hot water bottles in winter. All tents have en-suite outdoor bathrooms, flush loos and the hottest wettest showers in the Kalahari. A thatched library, lounge and dining area, allow one to relax and enjoy the serenity and peace of this enchanting area. The wet season lasts from November to mid April, and when the rains arrive, the landscape is transformed. Water gathers on the salt pan. Algae bloom, crustaceans breed, and clouds of flamingo descend to feed on them. Then herds of zebra and wildebeest materialise, drawn by the lush grass, and for several months, the desert is teeming with game and predators. But, when the waters dry up, the birds and animals migrate and the extraordinary ecosystem of the Makgadikgadi becomes the main attraction. Moles swim through sand and meerkats allow you to join their morning meanders; as the sun rises, pixie-faced creatures emerge from burrows and join you, sunning themselves with paws behind their backs, completely indifferent to your presence.
