Etosha National Park
Etosha National Park is a national park in north-western Namibia and one of the largest national parks in Africa. The park surrounds the vast Etosha salt pan.
The pan itself is usually dry and only fills with water briefly in the summer, but is enough to stimulate the growth of blue-green algae which lures thousands of flamingos. Most of the wildlife, including herds of zebra, wildebeest, and antelope, can be seen around the waterholes that border the pan. Etosha is served by five well-established rest camps and offers a great self-drive safari experience.
Swakopmund
Swakopmund is a city on the coast of western Namibia, covering 196 km2 of land. The city is situated in the Namib Desert and is the fourth largest population center in Namibia.
Originally a German colonial city, Swakopmund boasts a lot of colorful and historic architecture. It is known as the adventure capital of Namibia, and it is easy to see why. If you visit Swakopmund, you’ll have the chance to go quad biking in the desert, set off on camel safaris, try sandboarding on nearby dunes or just relax on the beach. There are also dozens of great international restaurants and several fantastic bars serving up locally brewed beer.
