Okaukuejo Rest Camp: The Best Rest Camp at Etosha

This rest camp has the best facilities for the bungalows. They are equiped with kitchens, a grill, toilets and bathroom. The camping is not the best as there really is no grass. But this is the case for all of the rest camps here. The bungalows run from 30 US to 45 US. Camping runs for about 20 US for two people.

Bring your own cooking equipment if you are camping.

Power is available for an additional cost.

Watch out for jackals as they will get into your packs and tents if you are not careful.

The Okaukuejo water hole allows visitors to see the animals outside their vehicles from the protection of a fence. The viewing area is raised a bit and clear viewing of the animals is available. During the day herds of elephant come to the hole as well as the occasional black rhino. I had the experience of seeing an elephant and a black rhino get into a scuffle where the rhino eventually got pushed out of the water hole (no surprise). The water hole is flood lit and allows the visitor to see some of the predator nocturnal species such as lion, brown hyena, leopard, and cheetah if you’re lucky. The Okaukuejo is most active during the winter dry season.

Halali - special resort in Etosha: The guesthouses

Spartanic and very hot area in northern Namibia !
But the accos are oké - the landscape special and inviting to explore the nature !!

Night and day possibilities for game watching !
A small path will lead you to an ARENA like view ground, lighted during the night.

Halali: Halali - view on my room - a resort in Etosha

In this country - it is very warm - never visit the area mid day - explore it in the morning or evening!
the rooms are spartanic ! but AC works - most of the time !

When visiting the waterholes during night - please take care an use a good spray against insects ! They like the waterhole aswell !

Halali Resort: Sunset in the National Park

Spartanic accomodation ! but comfortable !
The food is not that great - the local shop is expensive - but cooled water is always welcome - no matter the price !

There is a waterhole you can visit day and night - so no time to loose
