Desert coast between Walvis Bay and the Ugab River
Erongo, Namibia
Dorob National Park protects the Atlantic coast of the Namib from south of Walvis Bay north to the Ugab River, taking in the dunes around Swakopmund and the long fishing coast once known as the National West Coast Recreation Area. It is a landscape of fog, gravel plains, lichen fields and dunes, home to desert-adapted reptiles and the Damara tern. Shore anglers come for the fishing, and the Namibia Wildlife Resorts campsites at Jakkalsputz, Mile 72 and Mile 108 sit right on the beach. Swakopmund and the Skeleton Coast are within easy reach.
