22 Passenger vessels expected to call the Ports of Walvis Bay and Lüderitz for the months of November and December 2022

With the holiday season fast approaching, the Namibian Ports Authority is expecting a line of passenger cruise vessels to dock at both its ports. The Ports Authority projects to welcome 15 cruise vessels at the Port of Walvis Bay and 7 passenger vessels to berth at the Port of Lüderitz respectively during the months of November and December 2022, with the first call being from the MS Aidaaura vessel at the Port of Walvis Bay on 10 November 2022. 

As a key player in Namibia’s economy, Namport is committed to ensuring that all visitors who disembark from passenger vessels do so in a safe and welcoming manner as the Authority appreciates the value that these visitors add to the tourism industry and in turn inject income to the country’s economy at large.

Passenger vessels bring holiday makers to the harbour towns who contribute significantly to the local tourism industry by spending money at local shops, making use of the public transport system, going on day excursions as well as purchasing souvenir items from vendors who specialize in local arts and crafts.

Below is the docking schedule of the cruise liners that are anticipated for the months of November and December 2022.
