Today is a very early start. The mountains of sand are painted in a spectrum of apricot, red, and orange from the first light of daybreak, creating a striking contrast with the clear blue sky above.

After breakfast, we journey to the Atlantic Ocean via the Kuiseb Moon Valley’s barren, undulating hills. One of the most significant wetland habitats on the African continent and a RAMSAR world heritage site is the small lagoon in Walvisbay. The lagoon feeds more than 80% of the African flamingo population, and when they congregate in flocks of a few hundred thousand, they create an incredible sight.

The endangered Desert Elephant, the Black rhino, and various free-ranging antelope species call this rugged, rocky region home. We head to Twyfelfontein, a heritage site where over 2500 artworks were painted and etched by bushman groups over 6000 years ago! We visit the Organ Pipes and Burnt Mountain nearby.
