To the north is the city of Swakopmund in Namibia begins infamous Skeleton Coast. Benguela cold current that passes from the south along the coast, the air cools and sozdaŃt mists that are here most of the year. Because of heavy fog, powerful surf, non-permanent flows shipping is extremely dangerous, and for a long time there happened a lot of shipwrecks. The remains of the lost ships, which off course, run aground, are often found on the coast. Some lie at a distance of 50 meters from the water - desert winds carry the sand constantly in the sea, gradually moving the coastline to the west. The boats could cross the line of surf and hit the beach, but the surf in places so strong that at the oars to cross it in the opposite direction is virtually impossible. The victims, who were lucky enough to survive the shipwreck and get to land, found themselves among one of the most dry and unfavorable for the life of the world's deserts hundreds of kilometers away from populated areas and drinking water sources. On this side they found their death. So, today I will talk about the Skeleton Coast. Under the cut corpses. This spectacle can upset you. Think before you go under the cut ...
01. Today, the shore was chosen by fishermen.
02. There is really nothing but sand and stones. Hundreds of kilometers of desert ...
03. And here is really almost always the fog ...
04. On the beach and near lie the remains of the victims of various ships beached in recent years of some sort 500.
05. The large number of fish Skeleton Coast attracts huge flocks of South African fur seals, numbering more than 100 000 heads each, inhabited by traditional sealskin rookeries along the Atlantic coast of Namibia. At Cape Cape Cross in the border Skeleton Coast Seal is the only colony that allowed tourists to visit.
06. There are thousands of them.
07.
08. Visit the seal rookeries paid. For tourists made special bridges, but the seals quite friendly and run all over the neighborhood.
09.
10.
11.
12. The kids at a very funny man running away.
13. Mi-mi-mi ...
14.
15.
16.
17. Many of the seals here and die. When thousands flock breaks into the sea, on the shore it is necessary to lay dozens of corpses. They immediately attacked by a seagull. Killed mostly young.
18. Of course, now littered with the skeletons Skeleton Coast sea lions, not people.
19.
20.
21. This cat wandered into the walkway and snaps irritably.
22.
23. Toddlers.
24.
25.
26.
27.
28.
29.
30. Because of the unusual. Along the road are selling salt and different stones. At the same time sellers are not here, you need to throw money in the bank.
31. That is all. Bye Bye!
