  • Kolmanskop is an interesting quick trip.
    It used to be a diamond mining village, but it has long since been abandoned. You can have an interesting guided tour, before going off to explore for yourselves.
    All of the old mansions are being taken over by sand which does make for some interesting photos, and all of the equipment is exactly as it was left in the 1950's.

  • Definately go to Fish River Canyon. It may not be as spectacular as the Grand Canyon, but it is a hell of a lot less crowded.
    There are some great walks, both around the rim, and into the Canyon. It is a steep walk down, but for anyone that has hiked to the Grand Canyon floor, you will probably find this one easier.....

  • Namibia Etosha National Park
  • Lioness - Etosha NP
  • by TracyG

  • By far one of the best NP's in Africa to see most of the big game, cheetah and lion being the main two.
    For one the animals are amazing and they are easibly accesible, from a variety of waterholes, and two there is also some great scenery.

     How much sand do you want? Luderitz is inside the Namib desert. When I was there, sand was about all I saw?

     Just drive a bit further past burnt mountain (4x4 required) and you will reach a series of burnt mountains and other vulcanic remnants
