Warm weather continues in July, and sightseeing and game drives remain great activities. July is one of Namibia’s dry months, making it an excellent time to see wildlife and explore other activities in different parks and reserves.

The pleasant weather lets you photograph serene sights and memories that’ll last forever.

Countless regions will make your safari in Namibia enjoyable. The Skeleton Coast is a popular destination due to its fascinating shipwrecks and unique wildlife.

Namibia is an exciting safari destination due to its unique landscapes, its status as a Big Five destination, and the fact that it is the world’s oldest desert.

The sun continues to shine throughout July, and there is very little chance of rain. Vegetation dries out, making wildlife easier to spot.

Clear skies in July allow for having fun in the sun and the opportunity for cultural tours.

Places to Visit in Namibia and Why

Okonjima Private Game Reserve

The Okonjima Private Game Reserve is renowned for its leopards and offers exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities. In addition to leopards, the reserve is home to cheetahs, lions, hyenas, black rhinos, and various species of antelope.

Game drives here are eventful, as the dry winter months guarantee wildlife sightings.

One of the best times to visit the Namib-Naukluft Park is during the dry season, which begins in May.

In this desert, you will find desert-adapted animals, such as the springboks, giraffes, oryx, and various bird species.
