Small seaside town where frequent residents include pink flamingos and pelicans
Walvis Bay, or ‘Bay of Whales’, is one of 3 substantial settlements found along Namibia’s 1.600 km Atlantic coastline. This harbour town boasts huge salt fields and a wide lagoon, and is a popular stop for a number of reasons, like its remarkable birding opportunities and dune adventures. This is also where you will find Namibia’s largest harbour and with that, the delights of fresh seafood and sea life cruises that come with it. Its rich history is displayed in museums and monuments, and the waters can be explored with activities like kayaking and kitesurfing.
