Wilderness Hoanib Skeleton Coast Camp

In a remote area of the Kaokoveld, with gravel-strewn plains and dry riverbeds that draw fascinating wildlife, lies Hoanib Skeleton Coast Camp. Explorations of this isolated yet diverse area take place via game drives along the riverbed’s narrow ribbon of vegetation, where a surprising wealth of desert-adapted animals can be found, while the research center provides further insights. The desolate Skeleton Coast with its shipwreck remains and noisy colonies of Cape fur seals is accessed either by a fascinating drive or flight, depending on the weather.

Room Information

The eight large tents (including one family unit) have an open-air design and color palette to reflect the surrounding desert. The main area and pool look out over rugged scenery: a wide valley that slopes down to the almost-always dry Hoanib River. The entire camp is totally solar-powered.
