Walvis Bay

Namibia

About Walvis Bay

Walvis Bay is Namibia's main deepwater port on the Atlantic coast, set within a large sheltered lagoon that supports one of southern Africa's most important flamingo and pelican colonies. The port is the gateway to Namibia's extraordinary desert landscapes, including the towering red dunes at Sossusvlei (about 5 hours inland) and the eerie Skeleton Coast. The nearby beach resort town of Swakopmund, 30 km north, offers colonial German architecture and adventure activities in the Namib Desert.
