Walvis Bay is a bustling port city in Namibia's Erongo Region. Known for its rich maritime history and abundant wildlife, it's a treasure trove of experiences waiting to be discovered. With a population of over 85,000, Walvis Bay is the second largest city in Namibia.

Unmissable Attractions

Drive through sands of time at Dune 7, the highest sand dune in Namibia or explore Sandwich Harbour, a haven for birdwatchers. Be sure to visit the Walvis Bay Lagoon, one of the most important wetlands on the African continent and home to thousands of flamingos. The Raft, a unique restaurant on a jetty on the lagoon, is also worth a visit.

Getting around Walvis Bay

Car rental

Renting a car is the easiest way to get around Walvis Bay and to explore the wider Erongo Region. We recommend a 4x4 vehicle for its versatility, especially if you're planning to drive on the sandy desert roads.

Parking

Most of the city has free parking, and the streets are quite safe. When visiting popular attractions, it's advisable to use secured parking when available.

Driving routes

Roads are well-maintained, sign-posted, and widely used by tourists and locals alike. The B2 highway connects Walvis Bay to Windhoek and Swakopmund, while the C14 takes you to the picturesque landscapes of the Naukluft National Park.

Climate and Best Times to Visit

Winters (May to October) are mild and dry, perfect for sightseeing and wildlife viewing, while summers (November to April) are hot and windy. The annual Oyster Festival in July is a major highlight.

Useful Information

Currency

The currency is the Namibian Dollar (NAD), which is equivalent to the South African Rand.

Airport

Walvis Bay International Airport is conveniently situated around 15 km east of the city and serves domestic and international destinations.
