Okaukuejo is 114kms north of Outjo on the C38. This road leads you right to Etosha Park's Andersson's Gate – and from here it is only a few 'game viewing' kilometers to Okaukuejo. It is the oldest tourist camp in Etosha and it currently functions as the administrative hub of the park as well as being home to the Etosha Ecological Institute. It is situated at the western end of the Etosha Pan. The main attraction of this camp is that it overlooks a permanent waterhole, which is floodlit at night. Here a wide diversity of wildlife congregates and interacts. The spectacle starts at dawn, with animals coming in large numbers to quench their thirst. The excitement continues throughout the day and deep into the night. In the early evenings, it is not uncommon to have black rhinoceros, elephant and lion, all drinking at the same time. There is a bar, shop, swimming pool and a kiosk The restaurant provides a choice of a buffet or 'a la carte' menus. Accommodation is in one of the following units: Premier Waterhole Chalet: double story chalet with a balcony overlooking the waterhole. Two bedrooms, downstairs with 2 single beds and upstairs with a queen size double. Lounge area, fridge and tea-station Family Chalet: self catering unit with two bedrooms, kitchenette and braai (barbeque) area Waterhole Chalet: situated close to the waterhole these are comfortable double rooms with en-suite bathroom, fridge tea-station Bush Chalet: 2 bed chalet with one bedroom, bathroom, lounge area braai. Equipped with fridge tea station Double Room: room with en-suite bathroom, fridge tea station Okaukuejo is the main area of tourist activity inside Etosha, but visitors can also choose to stay at either Halali, Namutoni or Onkoshi Camp. All four of these camps are operated by Namibia Wildlife Resorts and have the advantage of being inside the Etosha National Park. Alternatively, you might like to enquire about several other private lodges around Etosha. Join one of the morning, afternoon or night game drives around Etosha. Game viewing is best done in the cool of the early morning or late afternoon. Most people choose to game drive themselves around the park – stopping at the various waterholes en-route.

The Etosha Pan was a most enjoyable way to spend two days game driving, had an awesome time and saw a heap of animals. Didnt manage to see the "Big 5" here but it was a great experience and stunning locations. Staying in the park is also fab, with excellent waterholes to sit by and just watch giraffe drinking at dusk. The camp grounds were pretty good, nice facilities.

Etosha is a must see attraction in Namibia. The roads are very good, the park is fences and the campsites too.

Be aware of Malaria. Malaria in Namibia is mainly found in the Northern areas of the country. The risk of contracting Malaria in Etosha is not as high as further north in the country or the Caprivi Strip, but better to be safe than sorry.

You get all type of animals here.
In the 2 days here, I got to see zebra, lions, elephants, giraffe, impala, lots of different birds, vultures, wildebeest, springbok and so many more.
I recommend camping at the campsites. That allows you to hear the lions roar at night.

Nice place!
