The activities at Shipwreck Lodge offer unique insights into this barren landscape. Either on your way to or from the lodge, you will see what is left of the victims of this treacherous coastline: Decaying ships, the remains of a Ventura Bomber, and the abandoned Westies Diamond Mine bear witness to the unforgiving nature of this arid landscape. You will also visit the seal colony and enjoy a drive exploring the Hoarusib River. The highlight of your stay is a guided Quad Bike Tour over endless dunes, for those over 16 years of age. Visit the Clay Castles, a striking geological formation, or spot the elusive desert-adapted elephants, brown hyenas, and lions. Weather permitting, a scrumptious lunch is enjoyed on the vast empty beach.
