CAPE CROSS SEAL RESERVE

 Picture THE PLACE :
The seal colony at Cape Cross is undoubtedly the main attraction on the coast between the Skeleton Coast Park and HentiesBay. The promontory has had an interesting and varied history. It was here that the first Europeans set foot on Namibian soil more than 500 years ago. To enable visitors to appreciate the reserve more fully, a selfguided drive incorporating six points of interest in the reserve has been planned.

WHERE :
The turnoff to the reserve is signposted on the C34, 120km north of Swakopmund. The entrance gate is 3km beyond the turnoff and the reception area is 1km further.

ACCOMODATION :
No accommodation is available, but the reserve is easily accessible from Swakopmund, Henties Bay and camp sites in the National West Coast Recreation area. It is en route to the Skeleton Coast Park.

FACILITIES :
Amenities are limited to toilets and drinking water.
