Okaukuejo Camp, Etosha National Park, Namibia

Okaukuejo is the main camp of the Etosha National Park. It is situated in the southern part of the park and is 20km from the Anderson gate. The camp is a busy camp with various accommodation options including chalets, rooms and campsites.

In the main camp area you can find a restaurant and pool area where you can relax and unwind after a long hot day. There is also a well stocked shop where will be able to purchase meat, drinks, bread and other general supplies. Next to the shop you will find a curio shop and the old post office. In the center of the parking area you will see the tower that you can climb out. You get a great view of the pans from the top. There is also a fuel station where you can fill up with diesel and petrol. You can also book game drives from the reception area and there is also Wi-Fi available at the reception and restaurant area.

The major attraction of this campsite is the waterhole and game viewing area. It is big waterhole with a lot of seating area around it. The floodlights around the waterhole also allows you to sit late into the night search for your next great sighting.

The campsites are fairly basic and in essence exactly what you would expect from a camp like this. The sites are right next to each other and separated by small poles. Each site has a cement braai and grid with a light above it. On the light pole you will find a electrical outlet with both 3 point outlets as well as blue caravan plug ports. There was even USB ports to charge cameras and phones.

The public ablution facilities where perfectly sufficient. There are hot water showers and flush toilets. The facilities could do with some general upkeep as you can see there is some general wear and tear. You can also find washing up rooms throughout the cam where you can do your dishes.
