Stroll along the old jetty

Swakopmund, Namibia

Stroll along the old jetty in Swakopmund, enjoy the view of the Atlantic and let yourself be enchanted by the sea breeze and the sunset.

What you can experience here

The Jetty, Swakopmund’s old landing pier, offers you a unique walk directly above the Atlantic. Originally built in 1905 as a landing stage for cargo ships, the Jetty has withstood the rough waves and the passage of time and today serves as a popular destination for visitors.

As you amble along the long pier you can watch the impressive ocean waves rolling beneath you and enjoy the fresh sea breeze. At the end of the Jetty you’ll find a viewing platform that gives you a wonderful view of the coastline and the town panorama of Swakopmund. Especially at sunset, the setting sun bathes the surroundings in golden light and creates a magical atmosphere.

The Jetty is easy to reach and ideal for a relaxed stroll in between other activities. Around the pier there are cafés and restaurants where you can round off your visit with a coffee or a fresh fish dish.
