Walvis Bay, Namibia

We docked in Walvis Bay today. This looks to be an industrial port, which is surrounded by a roughly 2-mile-deep strip of land occupied by a population of 102,000 people who live next to the arid Namib Desert. The desert stretches for more than 1,000 miles along the Atlantic coasts of Angola, Namibia, and northwest South Africa.

Following this 8-hour layover port, we will be 7 days at sea, proceeding up the West African Atlantic Ocean coast until we reach Dakar, Senegal.Læs mere
