Nata Lodge Introduction
Nata Lodge is an oasis set among the Mokolwane palms on the edge of the Makgadikgadi Pans in Botswana. It is ideally situated close to the entrance to the Nata Bird Sanctuary and is just off the main road, 10 km from Nata village. This is the junction to the Okavango, Chobe and Francistown areas. This area incorporates a multitude of salt pans and vast grass plains dotted by palm islands and forms the Great Makgadikgadi, which comprise the largest area of salt pans in the world, covering some 37,000 sq km in overall extent. It is the last vestiges of Africa’s largest inland sea and exudes an atmosphere of antiquity and mystery.
- Guided tours in open safari vehicles to the Makgadikgadi Pans.
- 3 hour excursions to the Nata Bird Sanctuary.
- There is a swimming pool to cool down in, an a la carte restaurant and a lounge/bar area for guests to relax and unwind.
