IMPALILA ISLAND LODGE Water lodge  Mighty Zambezi River Eastern Caprivi Strip Fishing, boating & birdwatching

Situated on the banks of the Zambezi River on the eastern Caprivi Strip, Impalila is a superb lodge providing a variety of unique experiences. The Lodge is located on Impalila Island at the confluence of the Chobe and Zambezi Rivers where four countries meet. Whilst the surrounding country is dry and parched, the rivers and the adjoining areas provide life-giving respite to the migratory herds of game in northern Botswana.

The central feature of the Lodge is an enormous Baobab tree which is surrounded by the living and dining areas. An extended deck area with swimming pool faces the Zambezi and the setting sun. Eight chalets, each with en suite shower and w.c, have private verandas for magnificent birdwatching and uninterrupted water-world views.

Activities include birding and fishing from motor boats, game-viewing by boat along the Chobe River, mekoro (dugout canoe) excursions to explore the quiet backwaters and expansive floodplains, and guided walks on the island. Picnic lunches and dinners to other parts of the island can also be arranged.
