Cruises to Walvis Bay in 2026 & 2027

Walvis Bay is a port town in Namibia, set on the country’s Atlantic coast. It is known for its natural lagoon, birdlife and access to the Namib Desert. Cruise visitors may see flamingos, pelicans and salt pans close to town or take excursions to Sandwich Harbour, the desert dunes and nearby Swakopmund. The area offers a sharp contrast between sea, sand and open sky, with desert scenery often the main draw. Walvis Bay itself has a working port feel. Still, the surrounding landscapes make it a memorable stop for passengers who want nature, wildlife and unusual coastal views.
