 Namibia is the world’s 34th largest country falling just short of Venezuela. With only 2.5 inhabitants per square kilometer, it is the least densely populated country after Mongolia.
There are generally five geographical areas in Namibia, each with characteristic abiotic conditions and vegetation: the Central Plateau, the Escarpment, the Bushveld, and the Kalahari and Namib Deserts.
In the modern age of environmental degradation Namibia presents as one of the most ecologically important areas in the world and it’s unique physical landscape supports huge numbers of birds and animals and the extreme temperatures from drought to the flood season displays a tantalizing metamorphoses all year round. Namibia’s high season consists mainly the months of April though to September as this time is mild during the day and cold in the nighttime with almost no rainfall. The summer months can be unbearably hot during the day and most of Namibia’s rainfall occurs at this time. It should be noted that summertime rates are significantly cheaper than those of the high season.
Along the coast, the Benguela Current has a modifying influence and fundamentally determines the climate of the Namib Desert. It reduces rainfall and causes a persistent fog to settle over the coast. It dictates variety over the desert clime.
Air travel is the most logical option when considering to go on a Namibia safari, though cross border drives from South Africa on the south eastern border are characteristically successful. Air Namibia, British Airways, SA Airlink and South African Airways have daily flights into Windhoek or Walvis Bay: while Air Zimbabwe, Air Botswana, and Lufthansa also fly into Windhoek on occasion.
