Full Day Marine Dune Day

Upon checking in at Walvis Bay we start our day with a morning catamaran cruise around the Walvis Bay lagoon. Common sightings here include the bottlenose and Heavyside dolphins, Cape Fur seals, Mola Molas, penguins, Leatherback turtles and even whales (July-November) as well as flamingos, pelicans, cormorants, White Chinned Petrel, Wilson’s Storm petrel, Cape Gannet, Black Oystercatcher. In addition to the incredible wildlife sightings, we get the chance to see Pelican Point, oyster farms, Walvis Bay Harbour and Pelican Point Lighthouse. While cruising around the lagoon, a light lunch is served including fresh Namibian oysters, and a glass of champagne! We then return to shore where we shake off our sea legs and board a 4x4 for an afternoon of exploring the dunes south of Walvis Bay. While our goal is to visit Sandwich Harbour, this afternoons adventure is more about the journey, as we travel on Namibia's natural rollercoaster, up and down the dunes. Perhaps the most emotional moments of your whole adventure in Namibia, will be driving between the crashing ocean and ancient sand dunes of the Namib, or perhaps when you get to the top of them, with an endless view of sand and sky, either way, you will see and feel things you couldn’t have imagined beforehand, and will never forget afterwards. For many guests, this is mentioned as a highlight from all their travels. We return to Walvis Bay late afternoon.
