Investment
Investing in coastal Namibia
Namibia's Atlantic coast has a natural deep-water harbour at Walvis Bay, proximity to the Namib Desert, and active offshore energy exploration.
We provide factual sector information to help investors understand what is here. We do not make promises on behalf of Namibia.
Context
The Namib meets the Atlantic here
The Namib is considered the oldest desert on Earth, estimated at 55 to 80 million years. The cold Benguela Current creates fog that sustains life in the desert and makes the ocean one of the most productive fishing grounds in the southern hemisphere.
This geography shapes everything about life, work, and opportunity on this coastline.
