Sandwich Harbour Half Day Tour
Begin your adventure at the stunning Walvis Bay Lagoon, home to flocks of flamingos and diverse coastal birds. Take in the beautiful scenery and snap some memorable photos. Next, we’ll visit the Walvis Bay Salt Works, famous for its industrial salt production and vibrant pink lakes caused by microorganisms. This unique landscape is ideal for photography. Enjoy a scenic drive along the sandy beach with ocean views on one side and the Namib Naukluft dunes on the other. This route showcases the stark beauty of the Namib Desert. If weather permits, we’ll head to Sandwich Harbour Lagoon, a RAMSAR site. If high tides restrict direct access, you can still admire the lagoon from lookout points and enjoy a leisurely stroll. After exploring, relax at a picturesque spot while enjoying snacks and beverages, all with stunning landscape views. On the return journey, get ready for an exhilarating 4x4 ride over high dunes, followed by a relaxing cruise back along the beach.
