Chiawa
Chiawa Camp is situated in the Lower Zambezi National Park, on the banks of the river. The Zambezi is 2,700 km long and meanders through the park, attracting much wildlife to its islands.
Accommodation & Facilities
This is a private, luxury camp owned and run by Grant Cumings, whose family founded the camp in 1989 when it pioneered safaris into the area. Chiawa is tastefully designed to fit in with its magnificent setting amongst a grove of mahogany and acacia trees. The nine superior safari tents come with king size beds, his and hers washbasins, ball and claw bath, indoor and outdoor showers and fabulous views. The camp has a thatched lounge with an upstairs observation deck, and the bar and dining areas look over the Zambezi River and the animals that regularly come drink around the lodge.
Wildlife & Activities
While staying at Chiawa guests can explore the beautiful Lower Zambezi National Park either on foot with an armed guide or can enjoy excellent game viewing on both day and night game drives in open 4x4 vehicles. Canoeing on the Zambezi River is also a great way to view the birds and mammals along the riverbank, or for those who want the more relaxed option sundowner cruises can be organised. Chiawa's guiding team is also on hand to assist those who wish to fish for the world's most aggressive fresh-water fish - the tiger fish - and a strict catch and release policy is observed.
