Thrilling Flight Over The Namib Desert, Swakopmund
The Namib desert in south western Africa is the oldest in the world. Stretching along the Atlantic coastline from southern Angola, through Namibia and towards the northern tip of South Africa, this vast expanse of silica is home to some of the largest sand dunes on Earth.
The constantly shifting orange dunes merge endlessly in to the horizon. This is Africa’s driest and most inhospitable environment, but far from lifeless. A significant amount of plant and animals species can be found in the desert, many of which are endemic and highly adapted to the dry conditions.

From Swakopmund flight will take you to the stunning Kuiseb River Canyon, along and into the dune belt, past Tsondab Vlei. The next point of interest will be Sossusvlei and Dead Vlei, where we make a comfortable shallow turn around the area for a view of the pans amongst the 1000 ft tall sand dunes. The next leg over the “Sea of Dunes” takes us past the long-deserted Charlottenfelder diamond camps and on to the coast. We head back up past the Eduard Bohlen and Shawnee Shipwrecks, over the famous Sandwich Harbor wetland. We fly over the vividly colored salt pans south of Walvis Bay, past the harbor, before returning to Swakopmund.

Sunway Safaris Namibia Sossusvlei Camping
The enormous red sand dunes of Sossuvlei and the Sesriem Canyon are highlights of any tour to Namibia, and Sunway Safaris offers a number of tours visiting this amazing destination.
The Namib-Naukluft National Park - is a national park of Namibia encompassing part of the Namib Desert (considered the world's oldest desert) and the Naukluft mountain range. With an overall area of 49,768 km2 (19,216 sq mi), the Namib-Naukluft is the second largest game park in Africa and the fourth largest in the world.
Dead Vlei - Nearby is yet another place of no return this one even older, and much deader than Sossusvlei. Known as Dead Vlei or dead marsh (Vlei being Afrikaans for a type of marsh), it is found among the tallest dunes in the world – home to Big Daddy the 343m high dune shadowing over Dead Vlei. Dead Vlei was once like Sossusvlei, with the river draining into it nourishing desert life and even trees. But no longer. Some 900 years ago the climate dried up, and dunes cut off Dead Vlei from the river. It became too dry in Dead Vlei for the trees to even decompose. They simply scorched black in the sun, monuments to their own destruction. The trees, now over 1000 years old, form a barren forest.

Namibia - Scenic flight
Taking a scenic flight in Namibia is a wonderful experience to see from a bird’s eye view the beautiful landscapes of the Namibian desert and Atlantic coastline. We enjoyed a scenic flight (around 2 hours) from Swakopmund, flying over the Namib Desert to Sossusvlei, Skeleton Coast and back to Swakopmund. During the flight, you see not only the red dunes of Sossusvlei but also penguins lying on the coast, whale bones and shipwrecks.

Namib Sand Sea: Namibia's newest UNESCO World Heritage Site
The best way to see a Namibian natural wonder is from a bird's eye view. On the wings of a SkyReach BushCat, we flew over miles and miles of dazzling dunes. This coastal desert may be the oldest in the world. The landscape is exceptionally beautiful and infinitely vast. And, at times, the sandy, uninhabited landscape resembles the surface of the moon.

Namib Desert Scenic
Coming from Windhoek with our T210N V5-ZEB and routing to Sossusvlei. We were flying against the sun most of the time, but we had nice captures of dune-shadows. We circled all the main area of the Vlei and Dune 45 before landing at Sossusvlei Lodge Airstrip just before nightfall.
Mit unserer T210N V5-ZEB von Windhoek kommend auf Kurs nach Sossusvlei. Wir mußten um diese Tageszeit gegen die Sonne fliegen, haben dafür aber die Schatten von den Dünen eingefangen. Nach umfliegen des Vlei Gebietes und Düne 45, ging es weiter zur Landung auf der Piste vom Sossusvlei Lodge Flugplatz gerade vor Einbruch der Dunkelheit.

The Namib Sand Sea
Flying over the World Heritage Site of the sand sea of Namibia is one of life's great priviledges.
The desert shares its spirit with the ocean, it has vast and mysterious depths and endless spaces that leave one in silent contemplation of the paradoxes of existence.
Flying over the Namib dune sea is one of life's great experiences, one that will leave you breathless with wonder at the beauty and eternity of it all.
