The Best Places to Visit in Namibia
Sossusvlei & The Namib Desert
One of Namibia's most iconic sights, Sossusvlei is famous for its enormous red sand dunes, some of the tallest in the world. The striking colours of the desert change throughout the day, creating spectacular scenery and wonderful photography opportunities.
Visit the famous Deadvlei, where ancient dead trees stand against a backdrop of white clay, red dunes and deep blue skies. It is one of the most recognisable landscapes in Africa.
Etosha National Park
Etosha is one of southern Africa's great wildlife destinations. Its vast salt pan and surrounding waterholes attract elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, rhinos and many other animals.
Game drives offer excellent opportunities to observe wildlife in its natural environment. The park is particularly well known for its waterholes, where animals gather to drink, making them wonderful places for wildlife watching.
Swakopmund
Set between the Atlantic Ocean and the Namib Desert, Swakopmund is a charming coastal town with a distinctive German colonial influence. Enjoy its seaside atmosphere, restaurants, cafés and historic buildings.
It is also a popular base for desert adventures and activities, including scenic flights, sandboarding and excursions into the surrounding dunes.
Damaraland
Damaraland is a region of dramatic mountains, rocky landscapes and wide-open spaces. It is particularly famous for its desert-adapted elephants, which have developed remarkable ways of surviving in this challenging environment.
Other highlights include ancient rock engravings at Twyfelfontein, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the chance to discover some of Namibia's most remote scenery.
Skeleton Coast
The Skeleton Coast is one of Africa's most dramatic and remote coastal regions. Known for its shipwrecks, rugged shoreline, enormous sand dunes and Atlantic mists, it offers a completely different experience from Namibia's inland deserts.
Explore this extraordinary landscape and discover its unique wildlife and fascinating history.
Fish River Canyon
Located in southern Namibia, Fish River Canyon is one of the largest canyons in the world. Its enormous rocky landscape, winding riverbed and spectacular viewpoints make it an impressive stop on longer touring itineraries.
Windhoek
Namibia's capital is often the starting or finishing point for touring holidays. Discover its mixture of African and European influences, historic buildings, markets and restaurants before heading out to explore the country's remarkable landscapes.
