\n

The northern Skeleton Coast wilderness is served by two Wilderness Safaris camps, each positioned in a different section of the wilderness and offering different landscape and wildlife experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Hoanib Skeleton Coast Camp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Position:<\/strong> Hoanib River corridor; approximately 50km from the ocean in the lower reaches of the Hoanib River.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Character:<\/strong> River corridor; desert-adapted elephant and desert lion are the primary wildlife focus; the river provides the visual and ecological structure of the camp’s programme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Capacity:<\/strong> 8 tents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aktivit\u00e4ten:<\/strong> Desert lion tracking (using research data from Desert Lion Conservation); desert elephant river drives; coastal excursions to the beach; geological interpretation; bird watching in the river corridor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stay:<\/strong> Minimum 3 nights recommended; most guests stay 3 to 4 nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Skeleton Coast Camp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Position:<\/strong> Further north toward the Kunene River; in a more coastal section of the wilderness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Character:<\/strong> More landscape-focused than Hoanib; the camp is positioned for coastal wilderness exploration rather than specific wildlife encounters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Capacity:<\/strong> 8 tents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aktivit\u00e4ten:<\/strong> Coastal walks; geological and ecological interpretation; the northern Skeleton Coast landscape itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The Fly-In Circuit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Wilderness Safaris offers a classic fly-in circuit that combines both camps: fly in from Windhoek; 2 nights at Hoanib Skeleton Coast Camp; fly north to Skeleton Coast Camp; 2 nights; fly out (or fly north to the Kunene River for an additional experience). This circuit provides the most complete northern wilderness experience available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
