Lodge Overview

Experience Africa’s wild side at the doorstep of Namibia’s capital Windhoek, just a 30 minute drive from the centre of town. Surrounded by a 7300 ha living escape of prime African savannah, Okapuka Safari Lodge is an oasis of lush green lawns under ancient camel thorn trees against the backdrop of a towering mountain range.

Enjoy the peace and quiet from the veranda of your cosy holiday home. Relax on the restaurant terrace with culinary delights or a drink, watching an array of warthogs passing by accompanied by antelopes, peacefully grazing side by side.

Okapuka, meaning “small animal” in Herero lives up to its name already at first glance. The iconic game drive, however, will take your breath away as you might encounter most of Namibia’s beautiful and diverse wildlife right here. Just out of town yet deep in the African bushveld, you are almost guaranteed sightings of all indigenous antelope species, giraffe, ostriches and, most importantly, white rhino.

Okapuka Safari Lodge takes you on a nostalgic African journey, reflecting both the majestic tranquillity of our mysterious continent and the exciting wildlife.

Please note: Access to Okapuka only with booking confirmation; this also applies to day visitors (see Activities).
