Aerial View of blowout feature, Namib desert, Namibia, Africa by Monika Hrdinova / Dembinsky Photo Associates This coastal desert stretches along the Atlantic coast of South Africa northward to Namibia and Angola. It is regarded by the scientific community as one of the oldest and largest true deserts of the world. The blowout, sometimes referred to as deflation features, picutred here is typical of coastal deserts. They are formed when winds erode into patches of bare sand on stabilized vegetative dunes.
