Activities
What you can do
Boat Safari
Discover the Okavango River and its surroundings on one of Divava Okavango's boat cruises. Explore the river on either a small or large boat, heading down stream where you will see Hippo, Crocodile, an enormous variety of Birdlife and much more! The guide will tell you everything you wish to know about the amazing nature and wildlife in and around the river. Just before sundown the cruise will head up stream from the Resort, to the Popa Falls to watch the sunset with some refreshments and snacks.
Buffalo Game Park
The Buffalo Game Park is possibly less well-known than the Mahango National Park but also definitely worth a visit. The park has many narrow roads some of which may not be accessible year-round, as the Okavango can break its banks if we experience a good rainy season. You might see Elephant, Buffalo, Hippo, Crocodiles, Roan Antelope or one of the almost 400 bird species that have been recorded in West Caprivi.
Fishing
Fishing is another fun and unique activity at Divava Okavango Resort! Go out on the mighty Okavango River for a few hours and catch some on the world’s most unique species like Tigerfish, Tilapia and Catfish!
Mahango National Park
This amazing National Park is only at 10 minutes drive from Divava Okavango Resort and offers guests a very good chance to spot four out of the Big Five! Elephants, Buffalo, Lion and Leopard are very present in this park and easy to spot. This park is much smaller then the Etosha National Park and perfect to visit for only a few hours. Visiting Mahangu National Park is an absolute must! Visitors can do it with their own car and follow the roadsigns or take a guided tour with on of Divava Okavango's game drive vehicles.
Popa Falls
The Popa Falls only qualify as a 'water fall' in Namibia, which has the distinction of being the driest country in Southern Africa. The Popa Falls is about 1.2km wide, and has a total drop off of about 4 meters. However, this stunning setting creates the perfect ambience for a sun-downer boat cruise or island lunch. The sound of the Popa Falls can be heard from Resort and provides the ideal soundtrack while relaxing in the Spa or enjoying dinner at the Restaurant.
Village Tour
Visit a Traditional Village nearby Divava Okavango Resort. The Kavango inhabitants will welcome visitors to their village and show how they grow crops, prepare food and drinks and much more. Visitors will learn about their culture and watch their traditional dances.
