Okavango Duba Plains

Searching

This west delta concession consists mainly of large open plains, the remnants of papyrus beds which have dried out over the last century. This very young ecosystem is yet to fully mature and is presently dominated year round by two species ... lion and buffalo.

Safari here is a very singular and gruesome experience, dominated by lions hunting buffalo on open plains, often during daylight hours. Buffalo take a long time to die, so this really is not for the faint-hearted.

Whilst there are other safari areas across Africa where lion action can peak to these levels, nowhere is it as sustained and hard-hitting action as this.

Duba Plains Camp itself is wonderful.
