Exploring Namibia:
Namibia, known for its stark, dramatic and timeless landscapes, is truly a diamond in the rough and one of southern Africa’s best kept secrets. Namibia is situated along Africa’s most inhospitable coastline to the northwest of the Republic of South Africa. Namibia takes its name from the 130 million year old Namib Desert, which uniquely harbors elephant, rhino, lion and giraffe. Namibia is a land of contrasts with towering sand dunes, shimmering plains, sunshine, mountains, gorges, valleys, and the starkly beautiful “skeleton coast”. From the abundant game and bird life to the diverse fish and seal population on the coast, Namibia offers something for everyone.
