Walvis Bay Namibia

The name of this city is Walvis Bay. This part of the video is taken at the intersection between 11th Road and Sam Nujoma Avenue.
Walvis Bay is a city in Namibia and the name of the bay on which it lies. The town has 100,000 inhabitants and covers a total area of 29 square kilometres (11 sq mi) of land.
The bay is a safe haven for sea vessels because of its natural deepwater harbour, protected by the Pelican Point sand spit, being the only natural harbour of any size along the country's coast. Being rich in plankton and marine life, these waters also drew large numbers of southern right whales, attracting whalers and fishing vessels.

Nice place from América ❤

[@Ben77788]

If you combined Phoenix and San Francisco together, this is what you'd get 😂. It actually looks very nice. From what I can tell, the weather is pretty much like San Francisco with the weather in the upper 60's to lower 70's year round. But it does seem to have a lot of desert influence and it sits right on the coast.

WAyvisbay is beautiful and clean

No its not always clean

[@philsangster677]

Does anyone know if there is a rail connection from Walvis Bay to Angola, Zambia or Democratic Republic of Congo? I need to identify a rail link to Lubumbashi in DRC.
All the information I have found so far suggest the rail north from Walvis Bay goes no further than Oshikango, but Wikipedia mentions a rail link feasibility study dated 2007. If anyone knows anything about this please comment.
:)

[@TheLastTraveller]

Walvis Bay is connected by railways with Windhoek. That is all, I guess.

[@philsangster677]

Thank you, that was very helpful. I had missed the connection to Windhoek but have now traced it in aerial imagery and found connections from Windhoek > Keetmanshoop > Upington (South Africa). After that there is rail all the way to Lubumbashi, though it is a long trip.

[@mzerk9324]

Railway feasibility study is currently being conducted by Canadian company for 12 months. Plans are in full swing to extend railway to Namibia's Katima Mulilo Town bordering Zambia & connect to Zambian rail. The railway is to be extended for 750 km which is distance from the town where rail line ends in Namibia to The Eastern town of Katima Mulilo. Very important route indeed as road is so congested due to thousands of trucks from DRC, Zambia & Zimbabwe.
