Nat Hab's Pelo Camp—Okavango Delta, Botswana

Nat Hab’s private Pelo Camp is a new seasonal camp on the Jao Concession offering classic water-based activities in the permanently flooded portion of the Okavango. Pelo means "heart," and the island on which this exclusive camp sits is shaped as a heart – discernible when flying in. Located as deep in the watery heart of the delta as you can get, Pelo Camp offers a genuine wilderness experience with a light footprint. Guests will boat into camp from the Jao airstrip, and once there, will explore via mokoro, the traditional wooden dugout canoe used in the delta. Though the camp's location is fixed, it utilizes no permanent structures other than flushing toilets with a septic system. Though remote, the deluxe camp spares no comfort among its tents that house private guest accommodations, a main lounge and dining area, kitchen, laundry and small staff village. Individual guest tents have private covered verandas and en suite bathrooms with flush toilets and running water in the basins. Each tent has a private outdoor shower that is filled with hot water on request throughout the day. Pelo Camp enjoys a lovely shaded location between wild date palms, jackalberry and Natal mahogany trees. An outdoor boma area and a raised platform expand the public space.
