Skeleton Coast National Park, Namibia

Skeleton Coast Research Camp

This is a fascinating and rugged corner of the globe. The camp is offered in 3 or 4 day visits with twice weekly flights which make this camp a real commitment of time and money. This camp is also used on the small group safari Great Namibian Journey. Highlights include visits to the seal colony on the coast and village visits to meet local Himba people.  — Mango's view

Enjoy a breathtaking and scenic flight over dramatic desert landscapes to the exclusive Skeleton Coast Research Camp situated in a private concession in Skeleton Coast National Park. This is one of the most inhospitable but hauntingly beautiful places on the planet: desolate and uninhabited. It has everything, from roaring sand dunes, windswept plains, towering canyons and salt pans to seal colonies and shipwrecks.

Skeleton Coast Research Camp comprises 5 Meru-style tents nestled between granite rocks. Surrounded by pure wilderness, this camp is truly remote and the perfect setting for a serviced style of camping. The camp is outfitted with necessary comforts and equipment, essential elements to the old and relaxed manner of early explorers.

Activities include full-day explorations in 4x4 Land Rovers to see the amazing sites with picnicking on the way. Included are cultural visits to the remote villages of the Himba people.
