SKELETON COAST
|
|
Namibia's Skeleton Coast is one
of our planet's most beautiful places. Over much of
the past decade, access to this private area within
the National Park has been restricted. It is wild,
desolate and uninhabited - and stunningly beautiful.
The Benguela Current brings cool, plankton and fish-rich
waters all the way from Antarctica and moderates the
temperatures in the region. The cool ocean air meets
the warm desert air and nearly every morning mists
cover the coastline, bringing life-sustaining moisture
to the desert's fauna and flora. Freshwater springs
permeate the sands to create oasis which attract wildlife.
The area has everything: sand dunes, canyons, mountains,
salt pans, seal colonies and shipwrecks.
