Erongo Halal Travel Guide

Erongo is situated on the Atlantic Ocean and has domestic borders with Hardap in the south, Khomas in the southeast, Otjozondjupa in the northeast, and Kunene in the north. Most of its area is desert—rocky north of the Kuiseb River, and sandy south of it.

Travel to Erongo

Due to the scarcity of other options, most travellers will arrive by car. The major highway in the region is the Trans-Kalahari Highway (B2) that leads from Walvis Bay to Okahandja.

Fly to Erongo

Walvis Bay has a regional airport with scheduled Flights to the capital Windhoek, and to Cape Town in South Africa.

Travel by train to Erongo

There is a train service from Windhoek to Walvis Bay via Karibib, Usakos, Arandis and Swakopmund. It runs a few times a week during the night. The train is predominantly for freight, with only one or two passenger cars, and it stops at every tree rock, as there are few trees in the desert. But the 11-hour trip is affordable and safe, and safes a night of lodging. Bring a sleeping bag; the desert is cold at night.

By public transport

Between towns you can catch a shuttle van. Karibib, Usakos, Arandis and Swakopmund have local shared taxis that can take you around.

Get Around

The B2 highway is tarred and in very good condition, as is the C33 from Karibib to Otjiwarongo. The C34 from Swakopmund to Terrace Bay is paved with a sand-salt mix. It behaves like tar when it is dry, and like soap when it is wet, drive carefully. All other C-roads are gravel roads and in fair condition, easily passable with an ordinary sedan. Other roads (D-roads, F-roads, and those without letters or numbers) tend to be rough, sandy, heavily corrugated, and will further deteriorate after rainfall.

Farms are private properties. Don't drive onto a farm road, even if the gate is open, unless your destination is signposted there, or you intend to visit that farm. If you open a farm gate to drive through, close it again.

What to see in Erongo

  • Cape Cross seal colony, 44km north-west of Hentiesbay
  • Moon Landscape, an area of unreal results of the erosion of the Swakop River, 25km east of Swakopmund. The road there further extends to the Welwitschia Plains which contain one of the largest of these plants that exist. The entire trip has roadside markers every now and then to explain selected plants, artefacts, and geological features. The road is very rough and crosses the sandy Swakop. You will feel sorry for your car. If you don't have nerves of steel, come in a 4x4, or do the trip by joining one of the frequent organised tours that start in Swakopmund.

Stay Safe

The Ugab riverbed is inhabited by desert elephants. If you are driving through it, remember that the area is theirs, not yours. They certainly know it. Don't drive too close towards a herd of elephants. 10-15 m is close enough for good holiday pictures and will normally not put your party in danger. Otherwise and the younger ones might play with your vehicle and the older ones might get angry, either way your vehicle might end upside down. You'll know that an elephant is angry when it shakes its head. In this case, stay in the car, switch off the engine, and avoid all unnatural noise (cell phone, camera, such things). They will eventually walk away; wait for this to happen instead of trying a daring escape.
