Top Tips for Walvis Bay Car Rental

Best Cars to Hire in Walvis Bay

Hatchbacks like the Suzuki Swift or Volkswagen Polo are great for city driving and coastal trips. Sedans like the BMW 3 Series offer more comfort for longer drives to Swakopmund, Henties Bay, or even further into the country. Compact SUVs like the Toyota Urban Cruiser provide more ground clearance for rural roads.

Exploring Nearby Destinations

These areas are all accessible by standard car:

Swakopmund: Just 35 km north — easily reached by tar road.
Namib-Naukluft Park: Day trips to the edge of the park are possible with a sedan or SUV.
Pelican Point: Reachable with a suitable vehicle and weather permitting.
Dune 7: Around 15 minutes away and accessible by any vehicle.

What To Do If You're in an Accident in Walvis Bay

Stop and check for injuries.
Call 10111 for emergency assistance.
Move the vehicle off the road if it’s safe to do so.
Report the accident to the police and your rental company.
Take photos and collect all relevant details.
File a formal report at the nearest police station.

How To Stay Safe in Walvis Bay

Watch out for fog, especially in the early morning along the Atlantic coastline.
Avoid leaving valuables in plain sight.
Drive cautiously on coastal or gravel roads that may be slippery or sandy.
Respect speed limits, especially around wildlife zones.
