Okaukuejo Rest Camp Fuel Station

The fuel station at Okaukuejo Rest Camp serves as the primary refueling point for overlanders entering Etosha National Park from the south. Located just inside the park’s Anderson Gate, this is your last chance for diesel, petrol, and basic supplies before venturing into Etosha’s remote western reaches. The station stocks engine oil, coolant, and basic spares alongside snacks and cold drinks. Hours are typically 7 AM to 7 PM, but verify ahead during low season.

Fuel prices are higher than outside the park, but the convenience factor is worth it when planning multi-day game drives toward Dolomite Camp. The adjacent rest camp offers accommodation and meals, plus a legendary floodlit waterhole that draws elephants, rhinos, and lions after dark. Stock up here if heading toward Hobatere or Purros.
