beach at Swakop

Favorite thing: Take a late afternoon walk on the beach. You can walk forever. Seemed like it is the in thing to do for the locals. We met several walkers. The strollers, the serious walkers that doesn't look around but just walk, the animal lovers, everybody just walks. If you're lucky and there are no clouds you will be able to watch the wonderful sunsets

Fondest memory: The atmosphere and the beautiful ocean and dunes

sunset over the sea at Swakop

Favorite thing: The sunsets are breathtaking over the sea at Swakopmund. It only occured on a rare occasion as there is mist most early mornings and late afternoons. When the skies are clear the sunset is unbelievable.

Fondest memory: The openess and the beach where you can walk forever, the ships in the mist on the way from Walvis Bay to Swakopmund and the sunsets.
