The Caprivi Strip is a narrow part of the country that juts eastward towards the Zambezi River. This area is known for its rich landscapes and immense numbers of wildlife, including elephants. There are a number of national parks located within this protected area.

The Skeleton Coast is another popular destination for those taking flights to Namibia. This stretch of coastline gets its name from the skeletal remains of whales and boats that wash up on the shore here. A large swath of this desolate coastline has been declared a wilderness area.

For a glimpse of former days, take a trip to Kolmanskop. The town sprang up with German immigrants when diamonds were discovered here in the early 20th century. It's now a ghost town, where tourists can wander through vacant homes that are slowly filling with sand.

Intrepid visitors might see the Spitzkoppe, which is often referred to as the "Matterhorn of Namibia." This bizarre rock formation juts 700 m above the plains below, providing stunning vistas. You can also find ancient paintings from the Bushmen tribes.

Fish River Canyon is another natural wonder that you shouldn't miss. A giant canyon measuring 160 km long and almost 30 km wide in some points, this spectacle will take your breath away. Sunrise and sunset offers the most brilliant colours.
