Sandwich Harbour Private Half-Day Tour
Join us for a 4-hour 4x4 adventure into Sandwich Harbour, one of Namibia’s most spectacular coastal areas, where the Namib Desert meets the Atlantic Ocean.
The route takes us from Walvis Bay Lagoon, a Ramsar wetland, to the pink salt pans and along the beach before we head into the dunes. We’ll stop at several viewpoints along the way, with plenty of time to take in the scenery and photograph the ever-changing landscape.
Sandwich Harbour is also an area rich in history and home to sensitive desert flora. Keep an eye out for wildlife such as black-backed jackals, seals, oryx and springbok, with whales sometimes spotted along the coast depending on the season.
We finish with an all-inclusive picnic and chilled champagne before heading back to Walvis Bay.
Duration: 4 hours
Available: Morning or afternoon tour
Catamaran Cruise

Pelican Point Kayaking
Spend the morning exploring Walvis Bay Lagoon and paddling alongside the seals at Pelican Point.
The tour starts at 08:00 with a 4x4 drive along the lagoon, passing the pink salt pans and stopping to see flamingos, pelicans, cormorants and other birdlife along the way.
At Pelican Point, thousands of Cape fur seals gather along the peninsula. From there, you’ll head onto the water in a stable double kayak and spend around an hour paddling in the sheltered waters alongside the seals. No previous kayaking experience or high level of fitness is needed.
After kayaking, enjoy a relaxed brunch with fresh rolls, coffee and tea before returning to Walvis Bay around 12:30.

Moon Landscape and Welwitchia Tour
Leave Swakopmund behind for a half-day drive into the Namib Desert, visiting some of the most unusual landscapes and plants along the way.
Our first stop is the ancient Welwitschia plant, followed by the lichen fields, where these tiny desert plants survive in one of the harshest environments in Namibia.
From there, we continue to the Moon Landscape, a vast and rugged area shaped by millions of years of erosion. With its unusual rock formations and wide open views, it is one of the best areas around Swakopmund for landscape photography.
Our final stop is Goanikontes Oasis, a green spot in the middle of the desert, where you can enjoy brunch or lunch before we head back to Swakopmund.
Duration: 4 hours
Departure: Morning

Cape Cross Seal Colony Tour
Head north from Swakopmund and follow Namibia’s wild Atlantic coastline towards Cape Cross.
Along the way, we’ll visit the lichen fields and the Zeila shipwreck before reaching Cape Cross, home to one of the largest Cape fur seal colonies in the Southern Hemisphere. Thousands of seals gather here, making it a noisy, lively and very different side of the Namibian coast.
We’ll take our time exploring the area before stopping for an all-inclusive picnic on the beach. Then it’s back along the Skeleton Coast to Swakopmund.
