Serra Cafema Camp is one of the most remote camps in all of Southern Africa and offers one of the most memorable experiences in Namibia. The small 16 bedded camp, whose only access is by aircraft, is located in the extreme north-west of Namibia and is further away from Namibia's capital city, Windhoek, than from Botswana's Okavango Delta. Serra Cafema shares this region with the wonderful and colourful Himba people who are some of the last true nomadic people of Africa. The Kunene River is the only permanent source of water and creates an oasis along its banks surrounded by rugged mountains and sand dunes. The camp is situated under shady Albida trees overlooking the Kunene River and comprises 8 canvas and thatched chalets that are raised off the ground, each with its own ensuite bathroom. Other facilities include a small swimming pool, dining room, and bar. One goes to sleep at night to the gurgling water sounds from the rapids just downstream from camp.      In stark contrast during the day, guests spend their time exploring one of the planets driest deserts. Activities include enjoying the breath taking landscape scenes with springbok, ostrich and oryx, dotted here and there, traversing the sand dunes in 4 x 4 landrovers and boating on the Kunene River where we can watch for the crocodiles. Walking in the remote mountains and river valleys are also a highlight. Serra Cafema is often visited by the native Ovahimba families who live in the nearby vicinity, which gives guests the opportunity to learn about their lifestyle and traditions. One of the highlights of Serra Cafema is the carefully guided quad-bike excursions that tread lightly on the dunes.   Style Very Remote Bush camp Air/Con N/A Dining Yes Children Not under 12 No. of Bedrooms  8 Activities Desert Game drives in 4x4, Quad bikes and duning, walks, fishing, boating,village and cultural visits to the Himba people Price Range £275.00 pppn Find Similar Properties
