Luderitz: Holidays

Holidays to Lüderitz

These Trip Ideas featuring Lüderitz offer a chance to potter around this quirky and fascinating old German town, on the southern part of Namibia’s coastline. Sandwiched between two vast mining areas, there is only one road to Lüderitz; past the famous herd of desert horses, and across the sands of the Namib Desert.

Take in the interesting architecture and colourful buildings; visit the eerie and photographically spectacular ghost town of Kolmanskop, go on a boat trip to see the African penguin colon, or explore the spectacular peninsular of beaches and bays – there’s plenty to do on your holiday to Lüderitz.
