Namibia'sSkeleton Coast was once and is still a synonym for the horrors a sailsman could face when his ship sank. All along the coast are the bodies of ships and there are many stories of sailors dying or only escaping the desert by accident.
The Skeleton Coast National Park has its southern boundary at the Ugab river and stretches northward to the Namibian border with Angola.
This is a very desolate area with often unchanging scenery. Apart from a few fish camps and the rare village, there is no human habitation for many kilometers.
