Nguma Island Lodge

Nguma Island Lodge NGUMA ISLAND LODGE offers peace and tranquility with a spectacular and exclusive view over one of the largest lagoons in the north-west of the Okavango Delta.

The lodge is situated on the banks of the beautiful lagoon bordered by palm trees, papyrus and reed beds. A 50-minute boat drive brings you to the main Okavango River in the panhandle where tigerfish abound and the many inlets offer good bream fishing. Nguma Island Lodge offers a very relaxed family atmosphere and a fishing, mokoro and birdwatchers paradise.

Big, beautiful, and completely unbothered 🦛✨

Life at Nguma slows down when the hippos come through — just grazing, grunting, and reminding us who really runs the water here.

Book a sunset boat cruise, a front-row seat to the Okavango’s most iconic residents.

5 uses for lilies in the Delta 🪷

Join Jay, our head poler at Nguma Island Lodge as he shares how the locals creatively use lily pads and water lilies in everyday Delta life.

1️⃣ Fishing protection in the mokoro 🎣
Used to help shield and protect the fish from the heat while fishing along the waterways.
2️⃣ A natural hat 👒
Large lily pads can be used for shade from the Delta sun while out on the water.
3️⃣ Natural straw 🌱
The stems are used as eco-friendly drinking straws to filter the delta water.
4️⃣ Celebratory decoration ✨
Lilies are often used to decorate for special occasions and celebrations.
5️⃣ Handmade necklace 📿
The stems can also be woven and crafted into beautiful natural jewellery.

The Okavango Delta is full of traditions, stories, and clever uses of nature that have been passed down for generations. 🌿🐘🛶

Early mornings on the water, rod in hand and the Okavango Delta doing what it does best — slowing everything down. 🎣

At Nguma Lodge, fishing isn’t just about the catch — it’s about the stillness between casts, the bird calls over the reeds, and that feeling of being completely off-grid in nature’s rhythm.

Where the only thing you’re chasing is the next quiet moment 🎣🌿
