Chiefs camp is situated on the north western tip of Chiefs Island, in what is termed seasonal delta. The area is therefore seasonally suffused with floodwaters. Generally, the floodwaters infiltrate the area in June / July and remain for a period of 4 to 5 months. Game viewing apart from its predators, the area is also renowned for its large concentrations of plains-game, elephant and buffalo. Both white & black rhino were introduced in 2001 and 2003 respectively.
Also available at Chiefs Camp is a holistic spa treatment area that offers enticing treatments utilising Thalgo (a renowned French marine-based spa health and product range) and Africology products, featuring a select range of medicinal essences drawn from various indigenous South African plants.
