Walvis Bay is an excellent starting point to explore other attractions of the Namibian coast, such as Pelican Point, Swakopmund and the Skeleton Coast.

Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
Pascal John at Safari.com guided me on different safari lodges (experience, rating), and most importantly knew about specials (buy 3 nights, get 4th for free) which allowed my family to secure a 5-star location at a more reasonable rate. Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
