Namibia
The country itself, the oldest desert on earth, the emptiest coast, and the great white pan.
A country the size of France with roughly two and a half million people. The Namib desert, oldest on earth, runs the entire length of the coast. Inland: red dunes, granite inselbergs, salt pans, and wildlife adapted to the dry.
Best time
May to October, dry, cool, wildlife concentrated at waterholes.
