This huge country is known for its towering sand dunes and wild, deserted coast. It may lack the abundance of animals found elsewhere, but nevertheless offers some wonderful wildlife hotspots: the gigantic white salt pan of Etosha, and the lush Caprivi Strip for starters. Other highlights include Fish River Canyon, the red rocky landscapes of Damaraland, the Himba people and the water bird haven of Walvis Bay. For the ultimate wilderness, the Skeleton Coast offers some of Africa's most remote and exclusive luxury camps, and a chance to see the rare desert adapted elephant.
