Skeleton Coast Camp
Over much of the past decade, access to this private area within the National Park has been restricted. However, in April 2000 a 12-bedded, luxury tented camp was opened and we can now offer superb 4 or 5 day fly-in safaris to this incredible area, with guaranteed departures every Wednesday and Saturday. The Benguela Current brings cool, plankton and fish-rich waters all the way from Antarctica and moderates the temperatures in the region. Summers are incredibly mild, even though we are in the desert! The cool ocean air meets the warm desert air and nearly every morning mists cover the coastline, bringing life-sustaining moisture to the desert's fauna and flora.

Skeleton Coast Camp is a 12-bedded camp consisting of six luxury tented rooms on raised wooden decks with en-suite bathrooms providing flush toilet, hand basin and shower. The rooms are attractively furnished incorporating locally found natural materials and all rooms have overhead fans and 12v lighting. The main area incorporates a dining room, lounge and bar area surrounded by glass concertina doors to allow for uninterrupted views of the desert beyond. In fair weather we dine al fresco under an ancient leadwood tree, around the camp fire under the stars.

The days are full, rewarding and enriching. This area has everything…from soaring sand dunes that roar, wonderful, vast, pastel-coloured plains, towering canyons and mountains, salt pans to seal colonies and shipwrecks. Add to that the game viewing!
