What you can experience here
Namibia's largest seal colony awaits you at Cape Cross. A fenced wooden walkway leads over the beach, where countless Cape fur seals gather. From here you can observe the animals very well. Not only the sight of the many seals, but also the smell and the soundscape are impressive.
Note: Every year on 01 August and 15 November hundreds of seals are killed by the government. On these days Cape Cross is closed to visitors.
