  4. The Skeleton Coast, Namibia Starts south of the Orange river, includes the whole coast of Namibia and goes 200km into Angola

  5. The SKELETON COAST of NAMIBIA... one of the world's most treacherous and barren shorelines, the product of dense coastal fogs and cold sea breezes caused by the icy Benquela Ocean Current. Scores of ships and mariners have met their end here fostering its aura of mystery and impenetrability. http://www.iwwn.com.na/sksafari/brochure.html
