The Okavango is an inland delta where a river from the Angolan highlands spreads across the Kalahari and evaporates rather than reaching the sea. The flood arrives in the middle of the dry season, filling channels that are explored by mokoro dugout canoe and by boat, alongside vehicle and walking safaris on the islands. Access is almost entirely by light aircraft to camp airstrips.
