Enjoy a scenic drive through the Namib Desert passing by the Tropic of Capricorn, the Gaub & Kuiseb passes and Walvis Bay lagoon brings en route to Swakopmund, the principal coastal resort of Namibia. The rest of the day is at leisure to partake in one of the many optional activities on offer such as scenic flights, quad biking, camel rides etc.
Walvis Bay’s calm natural lagoon is a twitcher’s paradise, teeming with roughly 50 species of seabirds, including vivid flocks of flamingos, bulky-billed pelicans and glossy black cormorants. It’s also a popular spot for windsurfing, kitesurfing and kayaking, while the promenade stretching for three kilometres along the water’s edge is a great place for a scenic stroll.
