The Namib Desert, one of the oldest deserts in the world, stretches along the Atlantic coast of Namibia, extending into Angola and South Africa. Estimated to be at least 55 million years old, it is characterized by vast sand dunes, arid gravel plains, and rugged mountains, with some of the highest dunes on Earth, such as those in Sossusvlei. Despite its harsh conditions, the desert is home to unique wildlife, including the oryx, Namib sand gecko, and Welwitschia plant, which have adapted to extreme aridity. The Namib's coastal fog, generated by the Benguela Current, is a crucial water source for many desert organisms. It also holds cultural and historical significance, with ancient rock art and remnants of colonial-era diamond mining towns. Today, much of the Namib Desert is protected within Namib-Naukluft National Park, a major tourist attraction known for its surreal landscapes and biodiversity.
