Often described as the most beautiful of all wildlife sanctuaries in Africa, covering almost a third of the entire Okavango Delta , a diverse habitat where the desert and delta meet , an area made up of floodplains, pans, lagoons, channels, woodlands and forests.

In 1963, the wife of the late Batawana Chief, Moremi the third, developed the Moremi Game Reserve in his honour, this was the first wildlife reserve to be set aside in Southern Africa voluntarily, by an African community on their own land.

In 1970, the Chief Moremi’s royal hunting grounds, Chief's Island, was added with a further area to the north east in 1991.
