The Namib Naukluft National Park covers nearly five million hectares of the Namib desert. This park stretches from Luderitz northwards along the coast to Swakopmund, a fantastic mix of towering dunes, vast gravel plains and canyons all with dramatic mountain backdrops.
The world renowned Sossusvlei is a remarkable area in the heart of the Namib, a huge clay pan enclosed by massive dunes, including some of the highest in the world at over 1000ft.
The incredible red and pink tones of the dunes burst into life in the early morning and evening when the sun is low. Shadows are cast on the dunes and the colours are just spectacular. It really is one of the most beautiful sights. South of the dunes is the private Namid Rand Nature Reserve which has spectacular lunar landscapes and you will learn about the desert adapted animals and plants.
