About this stay

Good campsites are prized gems for those adventurous travellers in Namibia who prefer to set up tents and sleep under the stars. Etosha Safari Campsite is such a find. Just 10 km south of Etosha’s Anderson Gate, it provides a peaceful base, a short drive from Etosha National Park . An inviting green lawn surrounded by mopane savannah is 'home sweet home' after dusty roads.

Pitch your tent on one of the 20 campsites available. Shared ablution facilities and power points make this the perfect base to explore the world famous Etosha National Park. If you want to fully enjoy the Etosha experience, plan a guided safari during your stay.

After hours of exciting game viewing in the national park, return to Etosha Safari Campsite. Luxuriate in peace, barbeque on the fire and sit back, reflecting on the famed 'Place of Legends.' Share your stories at Etosha Safari Camps’ famed Oshebeena bar and dance to the beat of our Etosha boys.

At Etosha Safari Campsite, enjoy the best of both worlds: sleeping under the stars at night and relaxing by the pool during the day. Additionally, the restaurant and bar at Etosha Safari Camp are open to all campers.
