Itinerary

Walvis Bay Esplanade
Admission included240 min

Our first stop is at the Walvis Bay esplanade. Here we see the Pink Flamingos. We learn about the greater and lesser Flamingos. We drop our tyre pressure to .8 bar and are ready to take on the beach ride. We pass the pink Salt lakes of the Salt Mine and passed hundreds of waders and palearctic migratory birds in the Lagoon, along the shore to the towering Dunes of Sandwich harbour. Magnificent wide open spaces as the dunes get closer to the sea. We enter where Dunes meets sea on a narrow strip of beach. Awesome dune views and walks await us. We take a stomach tingling roller coaster ride to the Sandwich harbor view point. The bay is at your feet, surrounded by the Nara bush. Sandy sandbanks are awash in the bay and the green sea with blue sky red dunes is absolutely awesome. We take a dune drive to the best views, searching for animals in the desert and look for an unique picnic spot. Lunch with a dune view, quiet, very quiet only us around. We have time for dune and beach walks.

Walvis Bay
180 min

Our route takes us through the dunes and a game drive where we might see Ostriches , Oryx, Jackal and Springbuck. On the beach the Seals may be sleeping or playing, and if we are lucky we will see Dolphins and Whales. The route is back along the shores with thousands of birds. Sadly we end up in Walvis Bay. We tank up and air up and take your back to your hotel.

Beautiful trip with experienced and kind guide Andrew

At the beginning of this trip, I have to say I didn’t have much expectation, but after we went in Sandwich Harbour, it changed really quickly! I took so many pics and vids and thanks to our really cool guide Andrew we learned a lot about life in Namibia, local wildlife and so on! Thanks once again Andrew, you did a really great job 🙂👍

Operator response

Happy to read that your expectations were exceeded and memories were captured 😉. Hopefully we'll welcome you back to Namibia for more adventure. Safe travels Uwe

Amazing Sandwich Harbour Tour with Andrew

We had an amazing tour from Swakopmund to Walvis Bay and Sandwich Harbour with our guide Andrew. He shared so many interesting facts and background stories throughout the day. His great sense of humor and warm, friendly personality made the experience even more enjoyable. We had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend this tour, especially with Andrew as your guide :) BR Anna

Best Day Ever!

Today’s Sandwich Harbour adventure was easily one of the highlights of our Namibia trip — and a big part of that was our guide, Louwrens. From the time he picked us up until he dropped us off, everything ran like clockwork. Louwrens knows this coastline like the back of his hand and kept us entertained with stories about the Namib, the wildlife, the harbour and its history. He knew exactly where to stop for the best photos, and somehow managed to make driving over enormous dunes look completely effortless. We, meanwhile, were hanging on and pretending it was effortless too! Desert on one side, Atlantic Ocean on the other — pretty hard to beat. If you’re in this area we highly recommend this tour, and don't forget to ask for Louwrens. He turned an amazing landscape into a truly memorable day.

Sandwich Harbour tour with Louwrens — 5 stars, no hesitation

We did the Sandwich Harbour tour today with Louwrens as our guide and it was easily one of the highlights of our trip to Namibia. From pick-up to drop-off, everything ran smoothly — timing, vehicle, lunch stop, the whole logistics side just worked. What really made the difference, though, was Louwrens himself. He's a natural storyteller — great stories about the area, the wildlife, the history of the harbour and the Namib — and he clearly knows this coastline inside out. He was incredibly attentive throughout, checking in with us, adjusting the pace, pointing out things we'd never have noticed on our own, and making sure we got the best photo spots on the dunes and along the lagoon. Driving the dunes where the desert meets the ocean is spectacular on its own, but with Louwrens it became a genuinely memorable day. If you're in Walvis Bay or Swakopmund, book this tour and ask for him. Highly recommended.
