Xudum

&Beyond's Xudum Okavango Delta Lodge nestles on the banks of a lagoon on a permanent channel of the Okavango Delta. Discrete suites boast sweeping views of the intricate network of water that fuels the ever-changing ecosystems of this lush inland delta. Twice-daily expeditions by open 4x4 safari vehicles, mekoro or power boats, as well as walking safaris, offers guests myriad opportunities to explore and discover the abundant wildlife by land or water. Experience intimate encounters with a magnificent variety of animal and bird life, including such elusive species as Pel's fishing owl and the African wild dog.

SUMMER ELEPHANT

During this time of the year (summer), we view smaller elephant herds and bachelor herds on the move. Most other elephants have migrated to the North and will only return in July. It is, however, very special to see the remaining elephants swimming in the channels during these warmer months, something which we do not always see in winter.
