Eagle Island Camp at Xaxaba |
|
|
 |
| |
Regarded as one of the world's most beautiful camps, Eagle Island Camp at Xaxaba - meaning `island of tall trees` - is water based and situated in the Central Delta. |
|
|
|
|
|
Lying on the banks of the Boro Channel just south of Chief's island, unspoilt and remote.
The camp is shaded by a canopy of indigenous trees, a cool retreat from the African Sun. This is one of the Delta's most pristine natural locations, a region of myriad waterways, palm treed islands and vast flood plains. Magnificent sunsets can be watched from the camp's sunset cruiser or from the raised deck overlooking the lagoon.

The mixed marginal floodplain woodland of Xaxaba and the surrounding semi-permanent flood plains are primarily home to Cape Buffalo, Bushbuck, Red Lechwe, Sitatunga and baboon.
This does not however mean that other species do not occur in this area, for at certain times of the year it is not uncommon to have an elephant outside your tent.
The area is also famous for its bird and life, and many other large mammals and predators.
