A 4×4 tour of the Skeleton Coast, Namibia offers a blend of adventure, natural beauty, and solitude. Whether self-driving in the southern parts or joining a guided expedition into the northern wilderness, the Skeleton Coast promises a unique journey through one of Namibia’s most enigmatic regions.

The Skeleton Coast stretches along the Atlantic Ocean from the Kunene River in the north to the Swakop River in the south. Known for its desolate beauty.

Home to nearly 250 bird species, the rare and endemic desert-adapted elephant, and over 100,000 Cape Seal banking on the shores. This is one of the most breathtakingly desolate locations you’ll find on earth.

The area’s name derives from the whale and seal bones that once littered the shore, partly due to the whaling industry, although in modern times the coast also harbours the skeletal remains of the shipwrecks caused by offshore rocks and fog
