Frequently Asked Questions

Ships anchor in the bay and land passengers by tender at the waterfront quay, right on the edge of the historic centre.
Yes, everything is walkable. From the landing, a few minutes takes you into the sloping streets of the old town.
Because it was born of German colonisation and a diamond rush. Bavarian gables, a Lutheran church on its rock and blue-and-cream Art Nouveau facades make an open-air museum of Wilhelmine style, carefully kept up 8,000 kilometres from Berlin.
The Felsenkirche, the church on the rock, whose stained glass blazes late in the day; the Goerke Haus, a diamond magnate's mansion with its panelling and ceremonial staircase; the old railway station and the early twentieth-century trading houses.
A diamond ghost town about ten kilometres inland. Prosperous enough to have had a theatre, a hospital and a bowling alley, it was abandoned when the deposits shifted south, and the desert now comes in through the doors.
The organised excursion is the simplest option: the site requires an access permit that tours include automatically. The guided visit is offered in English and German.
Yes, on boat trips to Halifax Island and its African penguin colony when the swell allows. Flamingos and fur seals also share the cold waters of the Benguela current.
A headland on the peninsula where a cross marks the passage of the Portuguese navigator Bartolomeu Dias in 1488. Peninsula tours reach it, among beaches and bird colonies.
No, and that is the surprise of the call. Bring a windproof jacket even in high southern summer: the cold current along the coast keeps temperatures cool and morning fog frequent.
The Namibian dollar, at parity with the South African rand, which is accepted everywhere. English works easily, and sometimes German.
