The greatest canyon in Africa and the second largest in the world is the Fish River Canyon in southern Namibia. The second most popular tourist destination in Namibia is this stunning canyon, which stretches over 160 kilometers. It penetrates deeply into the plateau, which is now stony, arid, and only lightly covered in resilient plants that can withstand drought. The river typically floods in late summer and flows sporadically. Visitors can stay in a variety of lodging options to witness this beauty.
