Swimming. Gariep River As we travel through the more dry areas and enter Namibia, we stop at a lodge by the Gariep River. Namibia's southern border river flows gently and pleasantly, with little impact from tourism. Sand makes up the riverbed, and the water is crystal pure. Free time to relax and go swimming or you can rent canoes and paddle down the river.
