Activities
Eagle Island Camp’s serene watery base lends itself to quiet relaxation, contemplation and reflection. If, however, you are looking for adventure and excitement then Eagle Island will not disappoint – from walking safaris on surrounding islands, where there is always the possibility of a close encounter, to mokoro and motor boat excursions around the myriad of waterways, the diversity and propensity of the wildlife will fascinate the most seasoned of travelers to Africa.
During the months of November through March, when lower water levels make it possible to drive in open 4x4 vehicles off the island, guests can also enjoy the combined excitement of a game drive.
Activities are dependent on the water levels. Activities throughout the year would typically include mokoro rides (dugout canoes), unless the water is too low, and game walks. When water levels are too low for water activities, game viewing is conducted by vehicle or on foot. Between June and September when the water is high, guests can also take motorboat rides
The camp offers game viewing activities in the morning and late afternoons. Bird and game viewing is done either from motorzsed boats or mokoro (traditional dugout canoes), which are poled along effortlessly and quietly through the clear waters of the Okavango.
