The Lüderitz Nest Hotel is the ideal oasis from which to explore the many and unusual destinations in and around Lüderitz, Namibia, such as Goerke Haus, the famous Felsenkirche, the new waterfront and Diaz Point. A morning excursion to the ghost town of Kolmanskop (1909) is a must. In earlier times this was the focal point of Namibia's thriving diamond industry. Take a 4x4 day trip to the 59m Bogenfels Rock Arch and the forsaken mining town of Pomona to experience the splendour of the Tsau//Khaeb Park.
Weather permitting, enjoy a 2-hour marine cruise on the Zeepaard Catamaran to the Halifax Island, which still hosts more than 1200 endangered African Penguins. Heaviside dolphins and cape fur seals, as well as the odd Humpback and Southern Right Whale in season can often be spotted on these trips. En-route to/from your stay-over at the hotel, stop and witness the wild horses of the Namib Desert at the Garub water-hole near Aus.
And what about adventure filled (fully guided) self-catering and self-drive 4x4 trips into the Namib Desert to Saddle Hill and Spencer Bay, 140km north of Lüderitz? With wild untouched beaches, shipwrecks and very high undulating coastal desert dunes, this 4x4 tour is an experience never to be forgotten.
