Sand seas, a cold coast, and the Etosha pan.
Namibia is one of the least densely populated countries on earth, and the reason to come is distance rather than density of wildlife. The Namib, which gives the country its name, is generally described as the oldest desert in the world. Etosha is built around a salt pan large enough to be seen from space, and in the dry months the game comes to the waterholes rather than you going to find it. Roads are good, the signposting is honest, and the driving distances are longer than the map makes them look.

May to October is dry and cool, and the best window for Etosha, where the waterholes do the work for you. November to April is hotter and greener, with short violent thunderstorms, and the desert occasionally flowers. The coast around Swakopmund stays cool and fogged in most of the year whatever the interior is doing.
Desert landscapes, photography, road trips, Etosha waterholes, travellers who want space.
