Tucked between the towns of Kamieskroon and Springbok, Namaqua National Park lies in the heart of the Namaqualand region of the Northern Cape. The park is renowned for its distinctive flora, particularly the annual bloom of Namaqua daisies in spring, which transforms the arid landscape into a vibrant tapestry of colours. Visiting in early August or September reveals an unforgettable spectacle, as the desert comes alive with flowers in a spectrum of pastels and bold hues. The atmosphere brims with butterflies, birdlife, and the swift buzzing of long-tongued flies, as porcupines, baboons, and various animals roam through the vibrant blanket of flowers. Visitors can traverse the park on foot or by car, with numerous hiking trails to explore.
