Schoeman Skeleton Coast Safari

The Skeleton Coast conjures up eerie visions of mist-enshrouded beaches strewn with bleached whalebones and rusting shipwrecks. Stretching from the south of Namibia up into Angola, the coast and its hinterland is a landscape of haunting beauty, a vast area of rolling sand dunes, uninhabited desert plains, fossil beds, unique terrain, desert-adapted animals and strange vegetation.

This four day air safari is the perfect way to view this magical landscape and maximise your time on the Skeleton Coast. The safaris utilise light aircraft, which in themselves add an extra dimension as they usually fly at low altitude providing passengers with wonderful aerial views of the landscape and wildlife, whilst each night is spent at a comfortable camp. In the course of your journey, you will see some of the most spectacular sights imaginable, which will leave an indelible impression.
