Wilderness Safaris’ Skeleton Coast Camp is located north of Möwe Bay, in one of the region’s dry riverbed, wildlife havens.

The camp is built on wooden decks with the central lounge, bar and dining area offering views of the surrounding desert. An outside eating area is positioned from the elements and allows you to enjoy the fresh air. The camp has one of the most spectacular settings on the continent and the private concession is diverse - from roaring sand dunes and windswept plains to towering canyons, saltpans and Cape fur seal colonies. Freshwater springs and the early morning mist off the Atlantic.

Skeleton Coast Camp is a 12~bedded camp. We have six luxury tented rooms on raised wooden decks with en-suite bathrooms providing flush toilet, hand basin and shower. The rooms are attractively furnished incorporating locally found natural materials and all rooms have overhead fans and 12v lighting. The main area incorporates a dining room, lounge and bar area surrounded by glass concertina doors to allow for uninterrupted views of the desert beyond. In fair weather we dine al fresco under an ancient Leadwood tree, around the camp fire under the stars. Excursions may include visits to the clay castles of the Hoarusib River, Rocky Point, the roaring dunes, lichen fields, seal colonies, Himba villages, shipwreck sites and secret water seeps that attract wildlife like Oryx, springbok, giraffe, ostrich, brown hyena, jackal and other smaller mammals. Walking also plays a part in the activities; due to the pristine nature of this area many parts are accessible only on foot, as vehicle tracks can damage the environment. Many specially adapted species of plants like Lithops and Welwitschia can be visited in this way.
