We now offer a 5-day trip into this area starting at Spencer Bay where our first overnight camp is situated.
On Day 2 we will venture North of Spencer Bay and start tackling the big dunes, which will take us probably the whole day until we reach the sea again some 40km north of Spencer Bay. Here we will take you to the reef of Knoll points and stand on the edge of Oyster Cliffs with stunning views. Here we will venture into a deep gulley at the sea for overnight no 2. Spectacular coastline with unusual rock formations can be explored.
Day 3 will take us over the cliffs past huge whale bones scattered on the beach all the way to Easter Point, where diamond mining took place in 1924. An old truck with wooden spoked wheels near an old shack may be observed and the remains of steamship ‘Balgowan Castle’, which ran aground in 1904. We now travel along the beach, where the dunes will run into the sea to provide some extreme 4x4 challenges to pass. This will take us to another campsite at the sea for night 3.
Day 4 will take us through some magnificent dunes to Sylvia Hill, where a seal colony can be observed as well as the old stone circles built as shelters by the San people some 800 years ago.
This is our turning point and we now travel in a south-eastery direction through a ‘Narra’ street past an old landing strip used by the famous diamond pioneer, M Kahan, until we reach Koichab Pan red dunes, where we spend one last night in the desert. Spectacular dune scenery for the photographers is present here.
Day 5 will take us back via Koichab Pan to reach the tarred road no later than 13h00 to give our travellers the opportunity to start their return trip to whatever their destination.
