WHY 

Stretching along the northern part of Namibia is Skeleton Coast, boasting with the most eerily beautiful and remote landscapes, and connecting with the Atlantic ocean. 

Skeleton Coast offers the escape to unparalleled peace and solitude. Here you can engage with the local Himba communities and learn about their unique traditions.

Despite the seemingly uninhabitable environment, Skeleton Coast is home to the desert-adapted elephants, lions, hyenas, and antelopes.

WHEN

Although Skeleton Coast offers a variety of unique attractions all year round, the winter months, May to October, may be considered as the most favorable time to visit. 

The daytime temperatures are bearable and the skies are clearer, making it the photographer's paradise. The wildlife, especially desert-adapted species, may be more active and easier to spot.

From November to April, the summer season, you will have greener landscapes and fewer tourists, providing a more exclusive experience.

WHERE

The Skeleton Coast, with its remote and haunting beauty, offers limited but authentic accommodation options, from luxury lodges to wild camping.  

The perfect blend of unique wilderness and luxury retreat.

Anja Mayer was extremely knowledgeable, patient, prompt with her responses to questions, and always very helpful. She was also a pleasure to work with.

Anja at Safari.com was a great partner to work with!
Working with Anja at Safari.com was great. She was able to work some magic and got us a few nights at the safari lodge we really wanted, Ngoma. Unfortunately, our flight from the USA to South Africa was canceled and we were rebooked a day later but Anja was great about making sure our lodge and the transports knew about the change in plans and made sure we got to our trip as soon as we could. She was a great partner to have and communicated quickly whenever we reached out. I would highly recommend using her when planning a trip to Africa!

Great service from Denise at Safari.com
Denise from Safari.com was extremely helpful. She responded promptly, provided good advice on safari lodgings options and worked up a couple of itinerary options to suit our budget. Denise also organised flights and transfers very quickly so that we could finalize our booking in a short time. Much appreciated.
