The Walvis Bay Waterfront With Kids: A Family Day Out
The Walvis Bay Waterfront is a great place for a family day. Kids love the boats, the seals and the pelicans, and there’s space for everyone to relax. Here’s how to plan a day that works for the whole family.
Things Kids Love
- Seals and pelicans: Look out for them around the harbour and on the water.
- Boat trips: A dolphin and seal cruise is a highlight for children of most ages.
- Kayaking: Older children can join a seal kayaking trip with an adult.
- Watching the boats: Spend time watching fishing boats and yachts come and go.
A Family-Friendly Plan
- Morning: Take a dolphin and seal cruise with Catamaran Charters or Mola Mola Safaris.
- Lunch: Eat at one of the Waterfront restaurants. See family-friendly dining
- Afternoon: Walk the lagoon promenade to see the flamingos, or play on the sand at Dune 7.
- Souvenirs: Let the kids pick a keepsake at The Jettyshoppe.
Tips for Families
- Book boat trips ahead and ask about life jackets for small children
- Pack warm layers, hats and sunscreen
- Bring snacks and water for the boat
- Keep a close eye on children near the edge of the quay
