    Walvisbaai Airport
    Walvisbaai/Walvis Bay has a small airport, located in the desert east of the city. There are flights to Windhoek (both airports) and to Cape Town, South Africa, making it easy to get to Walvis Bay and neighbouring Swakopmund.

    You can catch direct flights from CT to Walvisbay on a daily basis. Flights are rather steep, but it is worth it.

    Boat ...
  • Tip Rating:
  • Walvis Bay just begs to be experienced by boat .... you can see the desert and the ocean better, along with the harbour and animals - such as dolphins, seals and birds. Some serious fun! You can even rent a kayak and explore the lagoon. The other options are a dolphin cruise, or a fishing expedition.

    Like the rest of Namibia, tha Walvis Bay area is best reached and explored with your own car, or at least with the tour bus or whatever. Highly recommended is the beautiful stretch of road between Walvis Bay and Swakopmund, the Trans-Kalahari Highway. It is a road between desert and ocean - an attraction in itself.

    To get here from the Namib-Naukluft Sesriem/Solitaire area the C14 is usually the route of choice... it is one of the most desolate stretches of road. And the B2 or C28 (via Swakopmund) to Windhoek

    Roads to Walvis Bay
  • Tip Rating:
  • The coast can be reached by tarred road from Windhoek. Unfortunatley the country only has got four tarred roads, one connecting the South with the North, the road crossing from the coast via Windhoek to the Botswana border and the road to Luederitz.

    Roads to Walvis Bay
  • Tip Rating:
  • The majority of roads in Namibia are dust roads as you see on this picture. Take good caution when travelling on these roads, particulary at night. Ensure you have the right tyre pressure and do not drive to fast!

    Bird Island
  • Tip Rating:
  • As an attraction per se this is not much of a thing, unless you are an avid birdwatcher. But this seemingly simple little platform is a gold-mine ... not in the real sense of the word of course, but it just makes me stand in awe at what people come up with to become millionaires - and this is a success story!

    Many seabirds frequent the area, so someone decided to build a bird island to collect bird guano (guano - sh* - oh I don't think I can say that here ..... eeeemmmm .... poop) to be then sold as a fertiliser. For the first couple of years the birds did not really take to it but after while it seems it got cool for the birds to hang out there and leave their souveniers so the project was a success. Pity that when I was there very little birds were present .....

    The top thing to do in Walvis Bay, especially if you are interested in animals, is a Dolphin Cruise. It is a great opportunity not only to see the dolphins, but also to get up close and personal with various bird species and the Cape Fur Seals seals, who fearlessly board the boat as if it were theirs :-) They can also be petted and fed - or may also just wetly flop beside you for a short nap.

    The guides will do their best to guarantee the sight of dolphins, and will explain about the harbour and other interesting things about Walvis Bay.

    You will probably be offered Walvis Bay's famous fresh oysters with sparkling wine at the end of the tour - to wrap up a wonderful half day in good taste and good style.

    I highly recommend Mola-Mola cruises - really nice guides and will also pick you up from your accomodation (even in Swakopmund) if needed.

    Birdwatching
  • Tip Rating:
  • The Walvis bay area is a good place for birdwatching ... in season, the Walvis Bay Lagoon is full of flamingos and there are also other birds to be seen such as pelicans, herons, gulls, skuas, waders, cormorants etc.

    The dolphin cruises offered in Walvis bay are also a great opportunity to birdwatch, especially the pelicans and gulls. I also managed to see a young jackass penguin :-)

    Another interesting birdwatching point is Sandwich bay, along a 4WD only road out of Walvis Bay. It is not recommended to attempt this without a guide.
