Summary
| Description |
English: Natural-colour image of the Namibian coast. With the exception of a cloud bank hugging the coast near the Kunene (or Cunene) River, skies are cloud-free.Namibia’s deserts are by no means uniform. The Kuiseb River, flowing toward the Atlantic Ocean about midway down the coast, marks a dramatic difference in landscape. Rocky plains lie north of the river; to the south lies a sea of sand dunes, which appear orange-brown in this image. |
