The Kalahari is found in Botswana, Namibia and South Africa. The Namibian side of the Kalahari is an untouched African safari destination filled with magnificent sand dunes waiting to be explored.

NAMIBIA SAFARIS AND THE KALAHARI:

The Kalahari, an extremely vast area, is found in Botswana, Namibia and South Africa   The Kalahari is commonly known, but just how immeasurable this incredibly beautiful expanse of roaring sand dunes and endless blue skies is, is unclear. Visiting the Namibian side of the Kalahari can prove to be an adventurous safari experience as it is not a well known or a popular Namibian safari destination yet.

The Kalahari stretches over South Africa, Botswana and Namibia and extends all the way into the Congo. The Kalahari belongs essentially to Botswana, crossing borders for only a small portion into the Namibian side. But this part (the Namibia side) of the Kalahari is beautiful, its red dunes and encounters with the San people make it a Namibia safari highlight.

Pictures depicting golden sand dunes and intensely blue skies often mislead one to assume that a safari in the Kalahari side of Namibia takes in nothing but undulating sand. Actually, the Kalahari receives a surprising amount of annual rainfall that has resulted in a landscape given to clumps of grass, thorny shrubs, acacia trees, camelthorn trees and carpets of flowers during spring that makes a vacation here a powerful Namibia safari experience.

A Namibia safari in the sparsely populated Namibia side of the Kalahari offers a rare adventure across the extreme environment of this Namibian attraction. Whilst there are no Namibia national parks offering safari accommodation in the Namib Kalahari, private nature reserves, lodges and guest farms are geared to cater for Namibia safari groups.

The Kalahari offers access to dune boarding and walking, quad biking, night game drives and sky-diving. Game in the Kalahari includes the rare and endangered desert elephant and rhino and in the protected Namibia areas.  There is evidence of lion, cheetah, springbok, gemsbok, red hartebeest and even leopard.
