Itinerary

Explore Sandwich Harbour
- Your Walvis Bay tour guide will pick you up from your preferred location. Then, embark on a tour of:
  - Lagune of Walvis Bay, a Ramsar site.
  - The dune at Walvis Bay Salt Processing Works, as well as the pink water pans.
  - Paaltjies, a favourite fishing spot for many locals.
  - The Border between the Dorob and Namib Naukluft parks.
  - Mudbanks, where the ocean meets the dunes.
  - Sandwich Harbor lagune, where you take a walk in the surroundings. The Lagune is untouched and gives you an idea of what the original explorers saw when they first visited this country.
- Depending on the weather and the number of other tourists at Sandwich, stop for light snacks and refreshments.
- If Sand Dunes is your thing, you choose several routes over some awe-inspiring dunes. It feels like a roller coaster, but without the rails. If dune bashing is not your thing, you will drive on flat sand.
- There is also a bit of wildlife in the area, and with any luck, you might spot Ostrich, Springbuck, Kudu or Jackal.
