Little Namaqualand forms part of Northern Cape Province, South Africa, and Great Namaqualand is in the Karas Region of Namibia. Namaqualand is quite popular with both local and international tourists during early springtime, when for a short period a normally arid area becomes covered with a kaleidoscope of colour during the flowering season. This is known throughout South Africa as the Namaqualand daisy season, where orange and white daisies spring up from a previously barren site. (Unfortunately I wasn't there during that season).
