Sandwich Harbour, located south of Walvis Bay, is a unique and stunning area where the Namib Desert meets the Atlantic Ocean, creating dramatic landscapes and diverse ecosystems. Access to Sandwich Harbour is typically restricted to guided tours in 4x4 vehicles due to the challenging terrain of dunes and tidal areas; solo visits are generally not recommended. The best time to visit is during the cooler months (May to October) to avoid extreme heat. Tours typically last half a day to a full day, and the cost can vary significantly depending on the operator and the inclusions, generally ranging from $100 to $300 per person. Accessibility for individuals with mobility issues can be limited due to the sandy environment. Guided tours provide valuable insights into the local wildlife, including seals, flamingos, and various bird species, as well as the history and geology of the area.
