This Sandwich Harbour 4×4 adventure is Sun Sail's land-based outing, taking travellers south from Walvis Bay to where massive dunes roll into the Atlantic tides.
About This Sandwich Harbour 4×4 Adventure
Sandwich Harbour lies inside the Namib-Naukluft Park, and its reed-fringed lagoon supports hundreds of bird species, which makes the trip rewarding for birdwatchers as well as for the dune scenery. Because the tides reshape the coastal route, no two drives are exactly the same. Fees and taxes, bottled water, alcoholic drinks and snacks are included, and the vehicles are air-conditioned.
Why Choose This Experience
- Dunes meeting the ocean inside the Namib-Naukluft Park

What to Expect
