There are amazing breathtaking natural wonders here. The Namib Desert, one of the oldest and driest deserts globally, offers an otherworldly experience. The Fish River Canyon, the second-largest canyon in the world, provides stunning views and excellent hiking opportunities. The Skeleton Coast, a hauntingly beautiful stretch of coastline, features shipwrecks, dunes, and abundant seal colonies.
