The sheer scale of Namibia’s natural wonders, so scarred and ravaged by time, is one of its most distinguishing and awe-inspiring features. Yet despite these desolate landscapes, the miracle of life appears all around. Dunes the size of mountains that are ceaselessly blown and sculpted by the wind host a wonderful variety of flora and fauna, whilst the fog shrouded beaches of the legendary Skeleton Coast, curse of so many shipwrecked sailors in times past, are home to sprawling colonies of breeding seals and the sun-bleached bones of ancient whales.
