Agama River Camp

Lodges near Sossusvlei - Namibia

Agama Camp is situated on the eastern side of the C19 - specifically 35km south of Solitaire and 45km north of Sesriem. As it is only 45 min from the main gate to Namib Naukluft Park, it is an ideal stopover for self-drive tourists who wish to visit the red sand sea dunes of Sossusvlei or for those going on a hiking trail into the park. The name of the camp is derived from the small, colourful long-tailed, insect-eating lizard that was the first creature to be seen as the owners opened up the farm gate for the first time.

The main camp has a restaurant, bar, swimming pool and the viewing deck is a popular spot to admire the Naukluft Mountains and sip a sundowner as the beautiful sun sets. Breakfast, lunch and dinner can be ordered, as can breakfast and lunch packs for visitors to the dunes. Guests with special dietary requirements must book in advance.

There is also a guest lounge to relax and unwind after your excursion or hike and valuables can be locked up in the safe in reception. The 24hr tea/coffee facility is based in the restaurant. Children of all ages are welcome.

Accommodation is in 10 double rooms, all with twin beds. En-suite bathrooms and fans are standard. Rooms 9 & 10 have an inter-leading door that is used for families. A feature of the rooms at Agama Camp is the roof decks. They all have a table and chairs to admire the surrounding environment and bedrolls can be requested for a sleepover. A small safety wall has been built for those who tend roll around a bit in their sleep!
