SHOEBILL ISLAND CAMPBangweulu Floodplains

Location: Bangweulu wetlands

Rooms: 4 Safari tents

The Bangweulu Wetlands and is the best place in the world to see the mighty shoebill, the season runs from May to August when Shoebills can usually be seen on canoe trips.

The camp has a front row seat to the constant activity of the swamps and surrounding flood plain. It is always alive with bird movement and the sound of thousands of lechwe sloshing through the shallow waters.

The peaceful harmony of the local fisherman brings a special experience to this camp, where community conservation is crucial to the welfare of the wetlands and its wildlife, especially the iconic shoebill. Each day ends looking out at the sunset before you, and closes out what is certainly a place never to be forgotten.
