Namibia's colourful and unique town of Luderitz is located on the Atlantic Ocean shoreline, where coastal rocks meet the Namib Desert. Despite the waves and winds brought by the Benguela Current, the town is home to an abundance of marine life and birds. Flamingo and penguin colonies can be found nestled on the rocky coasts of the Lüderitz Peninsula, while the Sperrgebiet National Park preserves the areas wildest landscape. Bogenfels Arch, located just outside of town, is a 30m natural arch carved in the cliff face. Luderitz has kept its sleepy old-world atmosphere throughout the years and begs to be explored.
