Kwara Camp

Set amongst leadwood, mangosteen and knobthorn trees, the main area is nicely shaded and has a warm, down-to-earth atmosphere. The bar and lounge area is a lovely place to unwind between activities; the nearby curio shop stocks local crafts and souvenirs for the retail-inclined. Along with the adjoining thatched dining room, this elevated central area has a clear view of the lagoon. The heart of the camp though, is the fireplace in the sand, around which early morning breakfast and evening drinks are served.

There are eight tents well spaced between the evergreen feverberries and mangosteens, each with an elevated view of the surrounding floodplain and lagoon. The tents are simple, yet comfortable with a large double bed and an en-suite bathroom, complete with an open-air shower. The honeymoon tent also has an outdoor bathtub. Each tent has a small veranda with a couple of deck chairs that links to the bedroom by a large mesh sliding door, maximising space and light.
