Namibia is home to lions, rhinos, elephants, snakes, scorpions, and a host of other deadly animals that you normally only see on Animal Planet. But beyond the dry, barren desert, and across the seemingly never-ending sea of sand dunes, exists a wave that is perhaps the longest, most perfect lefthand barrel on the planet. Interestingly enough, most surfers never knew it existed before a few years ago. Here is Aritz Aranburu, Naxto Gonzalez, and Alex Gironi exploring the wild, vast coast of Namibia and scoring one of the world’s best sand bottom dreams.
