About Walvis Bay
Walvis Bay, on the Atlantic coast of Namibia, is a port town where the Namib Desert meets the sea, with a lagoon full of flamingos.
Walvis Bay is Namibia's main port, set on a sheltered bay with a lagoon where large flocks of flamingos and pelicans feed, and desert dunes begin at the edge of town. Cold water from the Benguela Current brings fog and a cool, dry climate, and rain is rare. South Africa administered the town until 1994, when it became part of Namibia.
