Beneath the dunes lies a world few ever see. Creatures that have mastered heat, sand, and silence. The desert’s true heartbeat hidden in plain sight.

There’s nowhere else on earth quite like the Skeleton Coast. Days are spent walking among forgotten shipwrecks and endless rolling dunes, and nights are lit by a Milky Way so bright it feels close enough to touch. Camping out here isn’t just about a place to sleep — it’s about feeling the raw edge of Namibia, where silence, sand, and stars take over.

Traveling to the skeleton coast when it is east weather will have you questioning every bone in your being.

Upon mustering the storm, the beauty will reveal itself.

We are very excited after a lot of demand to release one more itinerary for next year

This is an itinerary we have considered very carefully and it is with great excitement that we launch the first dates of our new Iconic Namibia itinerary.

We have been doing the classic southern Namibian circuit for many years and it has been a pleasure helping so many people capture our favourite places like Quiver Tree Forest and Kolmanskop. It is however time for change; Namibia has many new and exciting photographic frontiers and we want to renew both our own and our clients' wanderlust and inspiration.

We put our many years of local Namibian experience together and arrived at this itinerary.
Our top priority when making this Iconic itinerary was 1, to add more wildlife, both iconic and lesser known and 2, to show our guests more of Namibias incredible landscapes.

On this safari, in addition to the icon of the desert, Sossusvlei, much of what we do at the coast is wildlife oriented. Swakopmund offers the incredible experiences of the living desert, flamingoes and pelicans. After that we have two dedicated nights in pursuit of the desert elephants of the Huab River and then 4 nights to capture the best of Etosha.
The pace is slower - we visit fewer places and have longer stays at each, with 3 x 3-night stays on the safari. This prevents burn-out and provides a more in-depth connection to the best destinations.

It is our belief that these changes will provide a more unique, more productive and more enjoyable experience of our favourite African safari destination. It is a safari that covers the gems of Namibia, providing amazing insight into one of the most scenic and photogenic countries in Africa.

This webpage offers you a glimpse of the safari. For the full details of the safari with a day to day itinerary, full logistics, details of accommodation and a comprehensive list of what is included and excluded, please download the full brochure.
