Okavango Delta Botswana Boats Africa

This picture is to simply try and give you an idea of what it is like moving through the Okavango Delta. There are the boats, the mekoro, which are the primary transit through the wetness. Where you see trees in the background is an island. No trees, no island. The depth of the water depends on the season. In the summer, life is bad for polers. The islands get bigger as the water dries up. Winter is the best time of year for polers in the Delta. Lots of water, lots of tourists.
