WHY STAY
Shipwreck Lodge is a remote unique retreat on Namibia’s Skeleton Coast, consisting of 10, 'shipwreck-style' cabins. Located between the Hoarusib and Hoanib Rivers, 45 km north of Mowe Bay, with sand dunes to one side and the Atlantic Ocean to the other.
Stay in one of 8 double chalets or one of 2 family chalets spread out along the sand dunes. The design has been inspired by the shipwrecks found along the coast and each house is complete with wood-burning stoves and viewing decks.
Wake up to the sound of the ocean. Enjoy the sound of silence and millions of stars at night. Discover unique geological history of the ancient landscapes.
WHY WANDER
The Skeleton Coast is a nature reserve on Namibia’s northern coast, stretching from the Kunene River to Ugab River. The region is known for its rough seas and strong winds, thanks to the unforgiving and powerful Benguella current. Some of the most well known ships have seen their end on the infamous coast.
Discover Mowe Bay. See the famous shipwrecks, abandoned diamond mines, and remains of a Ventura bomber. Take a 4x4 Hoarusib River tour and see clay castles, flamingo pools, and a seal colony. Go on a game drive to see desert elephants, lions, brown hyenas, and numberous birds in their natural habitat. Take an ATV through the dunes for an adrenaline-filled afternoon.
INDULGE IN
Go fishing and have the chef prepare your catch of the day.
GETTING THERE
Fly into Möwe Bay, where you will be picked up and 45km north in a closed game drive vehicle.
