Splash Camp represents a contemporary approach to luxury safari accommodations within one of Africa's most celebrated wildlife viewing regions. Located in the heart of the private Kwara Concession, this modern tented property opened in 2018 and has quickly established itself as a flagship safari destination known for exceptional predator encounters and versatile activity options.
The camp occupies a prime position within a 175,000-hectare private reserve that shares a 30-kilometer water boundary with the internationally renowned Moremi Game Reserve. The region derives its name "Splash" from the extensive water crossings historically necessary to reach this remote wilderness area. The location uniquely combines three distinct habitats: permanent waterways that flow year-round, seasonal floodplains that transform with climatic cycles, and extensive dry savannah woodland. This ecological diversity supports exceptional wildlife viewing throughout all seasons and permits a comprehensive range of safari activities unmatched by many competitor camps in the Delta.
Splash Camp delivers a remarkably varied activity menu reflecting its geographic advantages. Morning and evening game drives in open-sided vehicles provide traditional safari experiences guided by professional naturalists accompanied by dedicated trackers. Night drives extend wildlife viewing into darkness when nocturnal predators become active. Water-based activities include mokoro excursions through narrow papyrus-lined channels, motorized boat cruises along permanent rivers, and fishing expeditions available from March through December targeting tigerfish and bream. Walking safaris provide ground-level exploration, particularly around nearby islands and heronry sites that concentrate birdlife seasonally. The camp's exclusive access to its concession section ensures these activities remain uncrowded and intimate.
