SERRA CAFEMA CAMP, Namibia
We suggest
2 or 3 nights here, in combination with other camps in Namibia as well as safari
camps in Botswana.
Serra Cafema Camp
is one of the most remote camps in all of Southern Africa and offers an
unforgettable experience in Namibia.
Inspired by the pioneering spirit of the area and the remote explorer
aesthetic, Serra Cafema is an unexpected oasis of luxury and sumptuous
spaciousness perched on the Kunene River which forms Namibia's northernmost border with
Angola. Situated under big shady Albida trees overlooking the Kunene River
the camp comprises 8 raised canvas and thatch chalets complete with en-suite
bathroom, retractable glass facade with abundant outdoor lounging, dining and
shower decks. Recently refurbished, the
new design is based on dramatic clean lines which coexists with the luxury of
exotic materials and finishes.
The sounds of the rapids just downstream from camp contrast starkly with the
views of the sand dunes of one of the driest deserts on earth. The Ozonganda,
or public homestead area, comprises indoor and outdoor dining areas, sunken
lounge, river bar, library, shop, wine cellar and swimming pool. Serra Cafema
shares this region with the wonderful and colorful Himba people who are some
of the last true nomadic people of Africa.
Activities include enjoying the breathtaking landscape scenes with springbok,
ostrich and gemsbok (oryx) dotted here and there, traversing the sand dunes in
4x4 Land Rovers and boating on the Kunene
River where one can spot the Kunene crocodiles. Walking in the remote mountain and
river valleys is also a highlight as well as carefully guided quad-bike
excursions that tread lightly on the dunes.
