DURATION: Full Day
After an early morning pick up in Swakopmund, our Spitzkoppe adventure drive heads north to Cape Cross Seal colony. We view small settlements, Lichen fields, stop at the Zeila shipwreck, pass some small salt mines and onto Cape Cross. Here we view the 50 000 strong Cape Fur Seal colony. We get close, so we can smell them, hear them, and almost touch them. We learn about the Diego cross and the harsh history of the area.
We backtrack and head into the Namib desert towards Spitzkoppe having a small lunch along the way. The road leads us past locals selling Tourmaline, Garnet, Aquamarine, and the other semi-precious crystals for some interesting buys. We see the Spitzkoppe- Namibia’s Matterhorn in the distance. Spitzkoppe, an inselberg, reveals its age through 2000-year-old bushman paintings. Interesting walks over age-old geologically handsome dolomite rocks and views. We climb up the Rock Arch and it’s particularly beautiful. It’s awesome. Its vast.
After a long and incredibly fun filled day you welcome the sunset in Swakopmund.
