Location: - Selinda Camp is is a comfortable tented safari camp in The Selinda Reserve and situated on the banks of the eastern Selinda Spillway between the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park. The Selinda Reserve joins the Okavango Delta with the Linyanti/Kwando waterways, the river systems close to the eastern boundary of Chobe National Park. The Reserve follows the Selinda Spillway, a dry river that connects the Okavango to the Chobe River. The Spillway flows only in years of high floods and high rainfall. The Selinda, covers some 1350 square kilometres. The camps are small and personal, where only a handful of guests can experience a big game safari in the finest African tradition. Selinda Camp is owned and operated by Linyanti Explorations and is the sister camp to Zibalianja Camp, also located nearby in The Selinda. Selinda is a derivative meaning "many small pools of water" in the Khoesan language of northern Botswana.
