Straddled between two
deserts, the Kalahari on the East and the Namib (from which its name
is derived) on the West, Namibia is a country characterised by magnificent
scenery complimented by a large variety and population of desert
adapted wildlife. With a population of only 1.5 million people this
vast country has to be visited to be appreciated.
Highlights of this
country vary form the dunes of the Sossusvlei (some of which are
the highest accessible on earth), the fragile and unique ecosystem
of the Skeleton Coast that is home to tens of thousands of fur seals,
the desert adapted elephant and rhino in the Damaraland, the concentrations
of desert adapted wildlife in the Etosha National Park to the strong
and fascinating culture of the Himba and Herero tribes that have
survived centuries of harsh climate and live a lifestyle of a bygone
era.
Journeys across the desert are truly rewarding, as there is
never an empty moment in the beauty of the scenery. Blessed with
a small population and an abundance of open space Namibia boasts
a unique climate characterised by blue skies and clear starry nights
making it an ideal destination for scenic photography and astronomy.
Across the country one experiences a rich and colourful culture that
freely blends in with previous colonial influences on architecture,
food and art all merging to create a distinctive Namibian experience.
