THIS IS SKIMMER ISLAND TARPON LODGE

Accommodation and Camp

Located at the northern most point of Angola, and looking across into the Republic of Congo, the camp is nestled amongst the mangrove forests, situated between the extensive Lake Massabi and the beautiful, wild and deserted beaches of this part of Angola.

The drive is around 2 hours through gallery forests, and palm tree lined flood plains, approximately 1 hour from the boundary of Maiombe Forest National Park, home to an abundance of forest animals, namely; elephant, buffalo, chimpanzee, and lowland gorilla. The abundant birdlife of the area is something to behold!

Accommodation at Skimmer Point Camp is in the form of a luxury canvass tented camp, each Meru tent set up with single configuration and its own en-suite bath- room. Each deck and tent has a 2nd covering of locally constructed banana leaf thatch roofing, keeping the interior of the tents cool and comfortable. The camp will host 8 clients at a time

Dinner will be prepared by our own camp chef, and won't leave you hungry.

Whilst not a 5-star lodge, this rustic, but comfortable camp with all of the amenities of a luxury lodge will leave you touched and inspired by the surrounding beauty!
