Our program takes in Sossusvlei at the Namib Naukluft Park, coastal town of Swakopmund (with a Living Desert Tour), on to the rock engravings at Twyfelfontein and the Damara Liv...
Swakopmund was of great importance as a port during the German colonial period. Since the coastal waters are actually too shallow, a protected bay is missing and the surf is too strong, this attempt has failed.
Today Swakopmund is a popular holiday town for visitors offering many tourist attractions.
Swakopmund’s surrounding area also has a lot to offer. Particularly attractive are trips along the magnificent dune-lined coast, both to Walvis Bay, located 30 kilometers to the south, with its peaceful lagoon. The lagoon is a bird paradise. Especially impressive are the flamingos, which are usually very numerous near the shore looking for crayfish.
On a clear day, you can see the striking black and white lighthouse on the tip of the headland in the northwest of the lagoon.
In addition, sea salt is produced in Walvis Bay. 400,000 tons of high-quality salt are extracted annually on the 3,500 hectare salt fields
Dune 7
Sandboarding is permitted on the approximately 130-meter-high sand dune. Pure quadbike tours are also possible, one-hour or two-hour. Since it is easy to get lost in the almost endless dune world, quadbiking should only be done in the company of a guide.
Historic buildings
The beautiful historical buildings in Swakopmund – Hohenzollern House, Woermann House, Old District Court, Princess Rupprecht’s home, cable fair, “Knight’s Castle” – can be easily got to know during a stroll through the city.
Crystal Gallery Swakopmund
The Crystal Gallery in Swakopmund, on the corner of Tobias Hainyeko and Theo-Ben Gurirab Avenue, is definitely worth a visit. In modern designed rooms, the entire variety of ores and minerals to be found in Namibia is exhibited here, tourmalines, amethysts, aquamarines, dioptase, quartzes and much more. Particularly impressive is a giant quartz weighing 14 tons, the crystal is 3 meters wide and just as high, and the exposure took several years.
