The Skeleton Coast makes a implausible scenery. It's right here that skeleton bones and shipwrecks are swept by the cold sea breezes and seen scattered everywhere in the coastline. Skeleton Coast is situated within a park; however only part of the area is open to the public. Spitzkoppe iceberg is a rock climbing Mecca and is one other fascinating site. The climbing is tough and involves tip toeing as you make your way up the rock cracks.
