Ep 122 - Skeleton Coast Adventure: Ghost Towns, Wild Horses & Desert Surprises! | SAILING NAMIBIA
⛵ Come sail with us on a wild adventure along Namibia's legendary Skeleton Coast! In this episode, we explore the rugged port town of Lüderitz, where we’re warmly welcomed by the local community and invited to take part in the lively LüKa Karneval celebrations. We then head inland to visit the hauntingly beautiful ghost town of Kolmanskop and encounter the legendary wild desert horses of Garub. From there, we sail north along the dramatic Skeleton Coast, seeking shelter in the remote and stunning Sandwich Harbour, where the desert meets the sea in spectacular fashion and we’re surrounded by incredible local wildlife. As the journey continues, we navigate through thick fog and arrive in Walvis Bay to provision and prepare for our upcoming Atlantic crossing. But before leaving Namibia, we go in search of one final desert adventure. Though flooded roads and a lack of 4x4 rentals force us to skip Sossusvlei, we discover a breathtaking alternative — the granite peaks of Spitzkoppe. 💛 A heartfelt thank you to the kind and welcoming Namibians who made this journey truly unforgettable. 📸 Photo credit to @BOKEH for the LüKa Karneval shots featured in this video. 🧭 Sailing | Namibia Travel | Ghost Towns | Wildlife | Desert Adventures | Overlanding | Atlantic Crossing Prep 👉 Like, comment, and subscribe to follow our sailing life and off-grid adventures around the world! #SkeletonCoast #NamibiaSailing #Kolmanskop #Luderitz #SandwichHarbour #WalvisBay #Spitzkoppe #WildHorses #AtlanticCrossing #SailingVlog #TravelAfrica #LukaKarneval Timestamps: 00:00 – Intro 00:45 – Sailing into Lüderitz 03:30 – Ghost towns & wild horses 07:15 – Karneval in Walvis Bay 11:00 – Seals at Sandwich Harbour 14:20 – Road trip to Spitzkoppe 18:40 – Reflections & local thanks
