Caprivi Strip

Its contrast to the rest of Namibia could hardly be more pronounced. The Caprivi Strip is a long panhandle enclosed by permanent water and stretching eastward from the Okavango River to, and along, the Zambezi, ending at the border junction of Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia.  The Okavango River first forms along the border to Angola, then cuts through western Caprivi and continues into Botswana where it disappears into the famous Okavango Delta.

In this birder's paradise, the colorful bee-eater, the rare Angola swallow, or the mighty African fish eagle fill the air with their chirping and calling. Herds of buffalo and elephant move across the borders of parks and countries, and occasionally you spot the rare sitatunga. And, ever so often you come across a small village of ancient people, the Ovahimba, who inhabit this region.
