Meet the seals of Pelican Point Peninsula

About this experience

Enjoy the sights of Walvis Bay Lagoon—with its renowned birdlife—and see the Pelican Point Lighthouse on this 3 hour tour with a guide. You'll gain insight into the salt refining production that takes place on the outskirts of town, and drive along the narrow stretch of sand that separates the bay from the Atlantic Ocean. Pass by a weathered shipwreck that tells the story of a lost fight against the sea, and catch sight of flamingos, pelicans, terns, and a colony of Cape fur seals. Light refreshments are included. This tour is ideal for those with limited time in Walvis Bay who still want to experience a little off-road adventure.
