The Skeleton Coast

The Skeleton Coast is undoubtedly the loneliest stretch of coastline in Africa. With gale force winds, the ice cold fast-flowing Benguela current, deadly crosscurrents, heavy swells, dense sea fog and treacherous reefs of coastal rock; it has accounted for many a bleach skeleton, not only of humans, but also countless whales, wind-blasted remains of tugs, liners, coasters, gunboats and trawlers.

To many an area once feared, because of its treacherous coastline, but now a place of unparallel beauty, tranquility and magnificent solitude.

It is a most unusual place, with its ever changing landscapes, lasting vistas of colors and moods, rich prehistoric plant life, strange desert forms and impressive array of desert adapted wildlife.

With its rich history, tales of ghostly shipwrecks and man's disastrous experiences in this isolated piece of coastline, it has set the scene for a unique tourist product, nowhere else to be found.

This place has always and still today, captivated both tourist and professional alike.

Estreux Safaris therefore invites you to share with us a unique experience; to fish along Namibia's rich coastline for Kob, Galjoen, Steenbra, Kolstert and maybe even Bronze Whaler sharks, while at the same time you can sense the timelessness of the Namib Desert, where horizons expand into infinity.
