Damaraland Camp is a rare venture which integrates communities, the environment and sustainable wildlife and is rated as the most successful eco-tourism venture in Namibia. Located on the north bank of the Huab River Valley, 90 kilometres inland from Torra Bay on Namibia's Skeleton Coast, the camp presents endless vistas across stark plains, ancient valleys and soaring peaks. The brooding mass of the Brandberg provides a focal point, almost 100 kilometres to the south. Early morning mists, generated by the meeting of the icy Atlantic and the warm land mass along the Skeleton Coast, drift inland along the river line, providing sustenance to varied life-forms. The river flows only once or twice during the short rainy season, seldom breaking through the dunes to the ocean.

This superb camp has been totally refurbished and now offers a wonderfully contemporary camp in this ancient landscape. There are still the family tents available which are ideal for younger families as well as the honeymoon tents a little further from the mess area. The original rock swimming pool has been replaced by a beautiful oval pool with relaxing double day beds close to the mess, all in all it looks wonderful and should not be missed if you are visiting Namibia. WILDLIFE
The natural laws of food and water availability dictate the movement and cycles of the rare and endangered desert elephant, black rhinoceros, oryx, kudu, springbok and other species that have come to terms with life in a desert environment. Even lion and cheetah move in and out of the area occasionally.
