About Chief's Island
Chief's Island is the largest landmass in the Okavango Delta, once the royal hunting ground of the Batawana chief, now the wildlife heart of the Moremi Game Reserve. As floodwaters rise, big game concentrates on its 70 km spine, giving the island arguably the richest predator viewing in the Delta. Remote fly-in camps combine game drives with mokoro glides and motorboat channels, water and land safari woven into a single day.
