A water camp on a tree island in the Jao Reserve.
Jacana stands on a secluded island in the Jao Reserve, surrounded by seasonally flooded plains and papyrus swamps, and takes its name from the lily-trotting birds that thrive here.
It is a camp for the water: mokoro and boat trips bring you close to the Delta's specialities, and the semi-permanent water delivers encounters with a remarkable variety of creatures.
