Shipwreck Lodge Is One of the Worlds Greatest Places 2018

With its expansive dunes and beaches, Skeleton Coast is among Namibia’s most stunning natural parks. It’s also among its least visited. This all-inclusive lodge, which opened in June, may change that. Its name and design pay homage to the region’s reputation as a hazard for boats, thanks to its coastal fog. Once there, guests (who generally arrive via car) can take guided tours of the Namib Desert, a seal colony and more. —Merrill Fabry
