Early morning mists (fog) generated by the Atlantic and the warm land mass along the Skeleton Coast drift inland along the river line, providing sustenance to varied life forms. The river flows only once or twice during the short rain season, seldom breaking through the dunes to the ocean.

Working with the community...

The camp is the result of more than two year's work with the "Riemvasmaker" people of the area, and our joint philosophy now provides the blueprint for future community tourism projects in Namibia. With the assistance of the Integrated Rural Development & Nature Conservation, the World Wildlife Fund, and other concerned  organizations, we believe we have put in place the seeds of a truly sustainable asset. 

Through the camp providing income, training and pride of ownership, the community are realizing the value of their wildlife assets. They are actively involved in the protection and management of wildlife and the land we are privileged to share with them. Star gazing is "par excellence", with crystal-clear night skies. There are no fences in the area which gives one a complete feeling of freedom not often found, but in Namibia...!!
