Desert at the Edge of the World

There are some places that exist beyond the bounds of time—where people and nature move to ancient, primordial rhythms. These places remind us of a different kind of existence—one where nature reigns supreme and the weight of modern life fades to a distant murmur.

Few places evoke this feeling more profoundly than southwestern Angola. Nestled within the world’s oldest desert, the Namib, Iona's extraordinary ecosystems form one of Africa’s most biodiverse wilderness areas and one of its greatest hidden treasures.
