Dinaka Safari Lodge invites you to experience the vastness of an African wilderness – whether capturing the colors of an African sunset, dazzled by the diamond-dotted night sky above or thrill at the roar of lions while tucked up in bed.

We are situated in the heart of Botswana, in the Central Kalahari. This unique landscape constantly changes from the stark wilderness of winter, to lush vegetation in summer. It makes Dinaka an African holiday that will be remembered. We would love to show you our world. Dinaka is a family owned and run Lodge. We invite you to come and be part of our family for your stay.

The spacious main lodge is furnished with comfort in mind and provides your clients with lounges, a dining and bar area, and a splash pool for those hotter months. The camp is 100% solar operated. Plug points are available in the Lodge for charging batteries. Wi-Fi is also available in the Lodge area.

ACTIVITIES

To make the most of your Botswana holiday, Dinaka Safari Lodge offers a range of activities showing off the best the Central Kalahari has to offer, including:-

• Game drives - Both during the day and night. Watch the vast landscape transform as the sun sets and darkness settles in over the bush revealing new creatures and night-calls. Capture special moments on camera.
• Nature walks with Bushmen trackers – Spend a couple of hours with our Bushmen on a guided walk in the bush & learn how they as a people have adapted over hundreds of years to live and survive in the harsh Kalahari environment.
• Stargazing - The night sky is a diamond studded wonder. Observe, discuss and identify the stars as we relax around the campfire. Watch for shooting stars and satellites high above.
• Birding – over each season we have an incredible variety of birds, from “LBJ”s to herons, hornbills, raptors and the amazing vultures. We are pleased to see that our bird numbers have increased substantially – especially the Lappet faced vultures.

Apart from the birdlife mentioned above, Dinaka supports the widest variety of animals in the area, ranging from giraffe, zebra, various species of antelope – eland, kudu, hartebeest, wildebeest, Oryx, impala, springbok, duiker and steenbok - to the smaller mammals like the Honey Badger, Bat-eared foxes and porcupine. Also included are the formidable predators such as the Kalahari lion, cheetah, leopard and brown hyenas. After good rains one can see the Giant Bull Frogs emerge from their underground tombs and fight to breed and grow, before the water dries up & they once again retreat into the earth. Other reptiles & insects proliferate too.

The Kalahari’s wide open spaces of rolling dunes vegetated with grass & scrub & intense solitude make it a unique safari holiday destination. Following the summer rains (November to March) the land transforms from dry, dusty and sparse thirst-lands into green grazing grounds of lush vegetation, with water collecting in the pans. It is during the cooler winter months (May to August), when the land is drier, animals congregate around waterholes, making it easier to spot them! Dinaka Safari Lodge is situated on private land, thus enabling guests to enjoy guided night drives.
