Nata River bed | Wild Camping

wouldn't recommend this location. stayed about 100m north of this location, just take the sandy road down from the main road and you will find plenty wildcamping spots. the scenery with the river bed looks lovely, but there are lots of flies and bugs that bother you while you sit outside enjoying the view (they seem to like you even more when you're freshly showered..) never had so many flies etc. in Botswana. also don't stay there on a weekend night, it is a holiday weekend and we stayed here on a friday night, there were no locals around during the day/evening, but in the middle of the night there was extremely loud music coming from south (there must be a bar or something as we saw a big hut). unfortunately also some broken beer bottles laying around and you can hear the road pretty well.
so basically a nice place, but would never stay here again as too many bugs and way too loud during the night.

Don't bother staying as the old runned down caming thar is 50 before the turn off to this place. the bush camp site is really nice. Some locals come to have a walk or wash the laundry. No crocodiles in the river. Plenty of wood for the fire. I wouldn't trust the water, bring your own

At few kilometres from Nata. Quiet sandy spot with lot of shady places really close to Nata River. Plenty of birds to observe.
