Ponta do Ouro, which is Portuguese word for "point of gold", is one of the most beautiful and action-packed holiday destinations in Africa. Located approximately ten kilometres north of the South African border post and thus only a short distance away for the famous Kruger National Park. You can make an entire African holiday experience happen in one day. Ponta accommodation can help you enhance this experience even further, but take it a step further and go Ponta Do Oura camping!
Camping in Ponta do Oura has never been more exciting and, to be honest, luxurious. You can opt for the traditional camping experience, where you will have to bring your own tent, sleeping bags, crockery and cooking utensils and rough it out in the forests (or even on the beaches) of Ponta Do Ouro. In this case, your trip will be much cheaper and you will have the opportunity to be in the middle of the African bush. You can also bring a caravan to most camping grounds and they will have communal bathroom facilities and even swimming pools.
If you are looking for a more luxurious exerience, but still want to be in the middle of nature, you can book a luxury tent at one of the many Ponta do Oura lodges. These tents are designed to act as "chalets or mini "hotel rooms" in their own right. You will be provided with a big tent (the walls are often made out of wood or sails) and an en-suite bathroom. Some walls will be absent and you will be able to open up the entire space in order to take in the surrounding environment. Depending on how much you are willing to spend, you will also get a daily linen change, a mini fridge, breakfast in the tent and even room service.
Luxury tents are a great way to spend a relaxing holiday in a beautiful place as they are not closed off from the outside world. Imagine bathing while looking over a river. Imagine having breakfast in the middle of a forest. This is just a taster of camping in Ponta do Ouro.
