Description of the Flight

This flight takes you from Swakopmund, east over the Moon Landscape, along the Swakop and Khan River. Routing southwards we pass Walvisbay airport and the Kuiseb river which is also the natural border for the dune formation. Over the shifting sand dunes, we reach the coast just south of Conception Bay where the Eduard Bohlen Shipwreck (1909) lies 500 m from the ocean, and we pass the Cape Fur Seal colonies and observe the Shawnee Shipwreck (1976) respectively.

We continue to fly along the coast with the Atlantic surge on the one side and the Long Wall in the Namib dunes (Lange Wand in German), on the other, before reaching Sandwich Harbour, a wetland of international importance and protected under the Ramsar Convention.

In harmony with our surroundings, we find Namibia’s colourful salt mines, south of Walvis Bay, attracting thousands of birds. Walvis Bay, Namibia’s major harbour town is our next destination. Between Walvis Bay and Swakopmund, we pass over the Langstrand Holiday and the Dolphin Park resorts, as we head back to Swakopmund.
