The Moremi Wildlife Reserve is 1,200 square miles of ’paradise’ in the heart of the Okavango Delta and heralded as one of the world’s most beautiful wilderness areas. Moremi - named after Chief Moremi of the BaTawana tribe - is a place of lily covered swamps, expansive grass plains and acacia forests, where visitors can exclusively view the most dramatic wildlife activity in its natural and splendidly isolated environment.
Moremi encompasses a network of waterways surrounding two large islands – Chief’s Island in the West and Mopane Tongue in the East. The diverse ecosystems - riverine woodland, flood plains, wetlands and reed beds, mopane forest and dry savannah woodland is the perfect domicile for a huge variety of animals and around 550 bird species.
The cool, dry winter months from March to September are a perfect time to visit, when you are practically guaranteed sightings of lion, elephant, leopard, hyena, eland, kudu, roan antelope, giraffe, zebra, impala and buffalo with hippos and crocodiles commonplace on the river banks.
