Skeleton Coast , Namibia
Located with views of the Kunene River, Serra Cafema is a special place hidden within the colossal Hartmann Valley. Perhaps one of the most remote and starkly beautiful destinations in southern Africa, Serra Cafema is must on any safari short list. Just eight thatch and canvas chalets set on elevated decks blend into the surrounding landscape and provide a comfortable home from home. The main areas include a dining room, bar and swimming pool. A variety of activities are available including nature drives, boating amongst the crocodiles and water birds on the Kunene River. But perhaps the most special is to spend time with the nomadic Himba people of the area.
