Geographically it looks to be in a similar position relative to the coast and latitude to my dark site. But the seeing you get there seems superior.
Do you know what the usual seeing is there?

Greg, thanks for your comment. I don't have the right figures for the seeing but I would only like to tell that the site where I was imaging from was close to the Hakos Mountains where the European Southern Observatory was going to be built. For political reasons then they decide to choose Atacama desert in Chile, but first choice at the beginning was the Hakos mountains in Namibia. So you can imagine the seeing is averagingly very good.
