Skeleton Coast Expedition — Shipwrecks & Seals - Image 1

Tour Overview

The Skeleton Coast is one of the last truly wild places on Earth. Named for the whale bones and shipwrecks that litter its shores, this remote stretch of Namibian coastline is where the Namib Desert crashes into the Atlantic Ocean. This expedition takes you to the legendary Cape Cross seal colony (200,000+ Cape fur seals), past rusting shipwrecks being slowly consumed by sand, through ancient Bushman rock art sites, and into desert-adapted wildlife territories where elephants walk along river beds. Few tourists ever reach the northern Skeleton Coast — this is raw, authentic African wilderness at its finest.
