The Moremi Game Reserve was first established
in 1963, and the park forms an integral part
of the Okavango Delta. The park stretches from
roughly the center of the delta to the extreme
eastern side of the delta. The Moremi game reserve
covers an area of
4 871 km square. The Moremi is described as
one of the most beautiful wildlife reserves
on the continent. It combines lagoons, floodplains,
acacia forests and mopane woodland. It is this
diversity of plant and animal life that makes
Moremi Game reserve so well known.
Arguably the two most renowned areas’
of the Moremi Game Reserve is the Xakanaxa peninsula
and Chiefs Island. The Xakanaxa peninsula is
unique in the sense that it can be reached by
four wheel drive vehicles and not only charter
planes. In some quarters Chiefs Island is known
as the predator capital of Southern Africa and
very recently saw the re-introduction of White
Rhino to the northern part of the Island thus
making it the only place in the Okavango Delta
where rhino can be seen.
