Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp sits on its own patch of wetland on the edge of Koshi Tappu, roughly 10 acres of ponds, reeds and trees that attract birds into the grounds. Guests stay in tented rooms around the property, and meals are served in a central dining area. The camp presents itself as an eco-lodge and has promoted its environmental certification, and it is set up primarily for nature lovers rather than for resort-style holidays.
Most guests come for guided birding. From the camp you can walk to the reserve boundary and the embankment, take a float on the Koshi with the chance of dolphins, visit the Koshi Barrage for gulls and terns, or explore nearby Tharu and Maithil villages. Because the camp's own wetland is productive, quieter moments between outings are rarely wasted. Comfort is simple: expect a clean tent room, basic bathroom facilities and generator or limited power at times.

Questions travellers ask
Is Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp inside Koshi Tappu?
It is on private land on the border of the reserve, not inside it. Entry to the reserve itself requires a permit, which we arrange as part of your safari.
Is Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp suitable for children?
Yes, for families who enjoy nature. The grounds are flat and the ponds keep children busy spotting birds. Supervise young children near open water.
What is the best season to stay at Aqua Birds Unlimited Camp?
November to March, when migratory waterbirds are present and temperatures are comfortable. April becomes hot, and the monsoon months bring flooding and fewer birds.
