  1. Henties Bay is a Namibian coastal hamlet located along the National West Coast Recreation Area, some 440 kilometers from Windhoek, 70 kilometers north of Swakopmund, and 60 kilometers south of the Cape Cross seal colony. It is a small town with a permanent population of roughly, 2700 people and is a popular tourist destination. It provides everything you need, including lodging, stores, restaurants, pubs, banks, a post office, 24-hour petrol, 4x4 vehicle rental, garages, service stations, and tow-in services, as well as medical services.


    A nine-hole golf course, tennis and squash courts, and a Jukskei court are among the sports amenities open to the public. Henties Bay has a peaceful, rustic atmosphere, and the lack of heavy traffic, mild climate, and long stretches of undeveloped beach make it ideal for a relaxing holiday with long walks, sunbathing, and picnicking, or a few days rest for the overseas visitor after a long journey on hot and dusty roads. To give pedestrians and sunbathers the most peace and quiet, parts of the beach are closed to anglers, automobiles, and quad bikes.

  2. Langstrand is a tiny beach resort in western Namibia on the Atlantic coast. Between Walvis Bay and Swakopmund, Langstrand and its sister resort Dolfynstrand are located. This beach, which offers amenities such as spas and relaxation areas, is another one where you can wander along the beachfront. You can swim if you're brave enough, but be warned: the water is chilly and the currents are strong. When compared to other beaches, this one is more exclusive and pricey, yet the services provided are well worth the money.


    The municipality of Walvis Bay governs Langstrand. It is popular for escaping the summer heat in Namibia's interior. The Burning Shore Hotel, where Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt stayed during the final weeks of her pregnancy with Shiloh, is located in Langstrand, and has recently gained notoriety.

  3. This is a secluded beach where you can appreciate the beauty of the Atlantic's wildness. It's safe to swim in, however Torra Bay, like other beaches, has cold water, so be prepared. Because of its near to Skeleton Coast, it's a popular site for visitors to stop by at night to admire the stars.


    The visitors to Torra Bay, a campsite in the Skeleton Coast Park with little to offer but a shop with the essentials, a petrol station, and ablution blocks, are serious fishers. They've come for the superb shore-based sport fishing (between December 1 and January 31). Despite the fact that this is a tough and demanding experience that necessitates careful planning, every fisherman will undoubtedly be able to get plenty of material for his yarn collection. There are no hotels here, so the camp site is your only option if you really want to stay at Torra Bay.

  4. Although the phrase is commonly used to designate the entire Namib Desert coast, the Skeleton Coast is the northern part of Namibia's Atlantic coast and south of Angola, from the Kunene River south to the Swakop River. The region was originally known by the Bushmen of Namibia's interior as "The Land God Made in Anger," and by Portuguese mariners as "The Gates of Hell." For much of the year, the upwelling of the chilly Benguela current causes dense ocean fogs. The winds blow from land to sea, the yearly rainfall is rarely more than 10 millimeters (0.39 in), and the environment is harsh.


    On the beaches, there is persistent, high surf. It was feasible to get ashore through the waves in the days before engine-powered ships and boats, but it was difficult to launch from the coast. The only way out was to go hundreds of kilometers across a marsh that could only be reached via a scorching and parched desert. The coast is mostly soft sand, with rocky outcrops here and there. Gravel plains dominate the topography in the south, while huge sand dunes dominate the region north of Terrace Bay. Skeleton Bay is currently well-known as a superb surfing spot. The Saltyjackal, a surf camp in Swakopmund, Namibia, is the only outfit that offers guided surf tours along the Skeleton Coast at the moment. Baboons, giraffes, lions, black rhinoceros, and springbok live in the riverbeds. So be careful not to go around by yourself, because you may endanger yourself and others. Nonetheless, if you visit Namibia, you must travel to this location.

  5. Swakopmund is the largest seaside town in Namibia is a huge lure for tourists and merrymakers from all over the world. The European-style colonial architecture of this coastal resort emphasizes its German heritage, producing a striking contrast against the Namib desert scenery. Sandboard or motorbike the dunes, dine and drink in a lovely waterfront café, or simply wonder at the region's unique birds and vegetation. It includes several ancient colonial structures, so history aficionados will enjoy it. The waves are quite strong, therefore swimming is not recommended; however, a stroll down the beach or a dip are still permitted.


    You may always take a boat or go on a safari here, then return at night to appreciate the seashore and its beauty. There are several low-cost lodging options in Swakopmund, making it ideal for backpackers. However, it is also home to a number of high-end hotels. It's entirely up to you!

  6. Walvis Bay is both a city and the name of the bay on which it is located in Namibia. The town has an estimated population of 85,000 people and covers an area of 29 square kilometers (11 square miles). Because of its natural deepwater port, protected by the Pelican Point sand spit, the area has long been a haven for marine vessels.

    The settlement is located in the Kuiseb River delta, just north of the Tropic of Capricorn, at the terminus of the TransNamib Railway to Windhoek and on the B2 road. These waters drew vast numbers of whales, luring whalers and fishing vessels, as they were the only natural harbor of any size along the country's coast and were rich in plankton and marine life. Walvis Bay is the place to go if you're looking for fresh seafood and outstanding local restaurants. In this beach serves up some of the country's best cuisine. Independence Beach, located in the northeast suburbs, is the best beach. In the western suburbs, you may go flamingo or pelican watching, as well as take a boat tour and go fishing. You may choose from a variety of accommodations that cater to those looking for a more affordable vacation.

  7. Pomona is a ghost town on the shore of the Atlantic Ocean in southern Namibia, south of Lüderitz. It's about 15 kilometers south of Elizabeth Bay, Namibia, in the Sperrgebiet, a diamond mining area with limited access.


    Luderitz is a secondary port on Namibia's southern coast. It's known for being the best site to see flamingos in the wild Agate Beach, and there's also a colony of penguins that frequents the area. If you're a history geek, the historic German houses in the city center are the major attraction, so pay them a visit. Coastways tours are the only tour operators that have access to this area, and advanced booking (1 - 2 weeks) for this tour is essential, since the appropriate permits need to be arranged to gain access.

  8. Cape Cross is a beach on Namibia's Atlantic coast famed for its massive seal population. The animals can be detected by their odor, but the view is worth staying for a long. Visitors can get lost in the clamorous activity and observe the fascinating interactions of the seal colony from a spacious jetty separated from the seals by a short wall. Around the end of October, the sea seals arrive in considerable numbers. The seal pups are born in November or December, and the seashore becomes a swarm of bleating and wailing small bodies.

    At information centers located throughout the colony, you can discover interesting facts about seal life or marvel at a modern reproduction of Diego Cao's famous crucifix. Swimming in the sea is also feasible a short distance away, while Namibia may likely provide more comfortable beach vacation options. Here you can take a stroll along the promenade and take in the scenery. Because there is just one hotel in the region, if you don't like it, you can stay in adjacent Henties Bay. Make a day trip to Cape Cross and then return to Henties Bay.
