Camp Details

4.3 / 54 ratings

The Enclave is on a small island just off the south-western edge of Chiefʼs Island, deep in the heart of the Okavango, and bordering Moremi Game Reserve. The camp is accessible only by light aircraft. On arrival, guests will be welcomed to the island by their private guide, who will remain their guide for the duration of their stay.

The Enclave experience is an intimate one. The camp is a small, comfortably appointed place. Oddballs’ Enclave can accommodate a maximum of 10 guests, in five twin or double bedded mini-Meru tents, making it a classic and intimate camp. The tents are on elevated wooden decks, each with a semi-detached private bathroom with an al fresco bucket shower, and hot and cold running water. The Enclave is the perfect destination for a small group or family to spend time together.

Oddballs' Enclave: your questions

Are there game drives here?

No. The Enclave offers walking and mekoro, the traditional dug-out canoe of the swamps, and nothing else. That is deliberate, and it is what gives the camp its character. It sits on a small island off the south-western edge of Chief's Island, bordering Moremi Game Reserve, and is reached only by light aircraft.

What is the walking like?

You walk unarmed among the full range of Africa's wildlife, guided by a professional guide born and bred in the swamps who meets you on arrival and stays with you for your whole stay.

How small is the camp?

It takes a maximum of 10 guests in five mini-Meru tents, twin or double bedded, raised on wooden decks.
