Shakawe[pronunciation?] is a village located in the northwest corner of Botswana at the beginning of the Okavango Delta, close to Namibia and Angola. Shakawe is awakening from its former status as a sleepy little outpost on the Okavango. For travellers, Shakawe means a Botswana entry or exit stamp or a staging post for a visit to the Tsodilo Hills, 40 km away. For Southern African holiday-makers, it is most often the start of a fishing trip in the Okavango Panhandle. It also provides access to the Caprivi Strip.[1] The record high temperature ever registered in Shakawe was 39.6 °C (103.3 °F).[2] The lowest temperature registered in Shakawe was −6.1 °C (21.0 °F).[2]
