What we could confirm
Loango Lodge
The park's historic base on the Iguéla Lagoon. Operator Africa's Eden states its network is not operating or taking reservations, with reopening planned for Q4 2026.
Akaka Forest Camp
A rustic tented camp deep in the park. It is listed in the same Africa's Eden network, although a tour company advertised stays there for mid-2026. Ask for written confirmation.
Ndola
Described by See Wild Travels as a tented lodge near the Iguéla river mouth, replacing the original lodge as a main base.
Sette Cama
Two operations use this name on the southern boundary. Machaba Wild runs an eight-guest eco camp focused on wildlife, and African Waters runs a fishing camp. Both report a September to April season.
Choosing a base
The northern side around Iguéla suits visitors who want gorilla trekking and access to the main lagoon system. The southern side around Sette Cama offers a separate and very remote experience reached through Gamba.
Before paying a deposit, ask who currently operates the camp, whether it is open on your dates, which activities are running, and how transfers work.
