Sossusvlei Sand Dunes, Namibia
Sossusvlei is home to the world’s largest sand dunes. Do not miss Deadvlei too – the white salt pan with ancient acacia trees that you see in all Namibia travel guides. Recommended dunes to explore and photograph Big Daddy, Big Mama, and Dune 45.
Sossusvlei is a salt flat in the central Namib desert, which is within the Namib-Naukluft National Park. Fed by the Tsauchab River, it is known for the high net sand dunes that surround it, forming an important sea of sand. Dead Vlei and Hidden Vlei are close to Sossusvlei.
