The ocean in front of Namibia is gone over by a cold stream, the Benguela stream. The cold stream causes no rain on the land coast for about 100 kilometers wide : it is called the Namib desert.
The rest of the country is about 1000 m high. That implies, in winter season, it can freeze under 0 Celsius degrees .

  Cape Cross : Between the frozen ocean and the desert, thousands seals live there.

 Etosha National Park : There live many animals. During the dry season, they stay around waterholes.
Only a part of the park is open. You can visit it without a guide.

  Fish River Canyon : Dug by the Orange river, you can go into the canyon with a medical agreement only and it is delivered in windhoek. This is aimed at controlling how many people go in the canyon more than protecting people from themselves.
