The en-suite bathrooms are a statement of elegant
simplicity, while the private balconies glow with the warmth of wooden
deckchairs and tables. The Atlantic Ocean is literally meters away. This
fairly unknown wilderness is home to the biggest Cape Fur Seal colony in the
world, not to worry, the lodge is outside the ‘smell’ zone.
The lodge is situated 60 km north of Henties Bay and
120km north of Swakopmund. The curious mix of Cape Dutch and West Coast
fishing village architecture with colossal windows happily embrace the
natural light and affords endless contemplated vistas
Two of the bedrooms have been linked with a door (interleading)
to create a family suite when needed.
Messum Crater Experience
Guest
joining this optional experience stop at one of the richest Lichen stretches
of the Namib Desert where all six species found to date in Namibia can be
seen. The nutrient rich, cold Benguela Current not only generates a wealth
of marine life, but it also produces fog which ensures the survival of an
intriguing variety of desert adapted animals and plants.
The trip
continues along the Messum River where a dense population of Welwitschias is
growing, including the largest recorded Welwitschia in Namibia., there after
a visit to the stark lunar landscape to view the Messum Crater. The silence
and solitude of the Crater is totally contrasting with the turbulence of
other destinations.
