• Shipwreck Lodge

Magical & Hauntingly Picturesque

Nestled in the heart of the African wilderness, Shipwreck Lodge is located between the Hoarusib and Hoanib Rivers, in the Skeleton Coast National Park. A place shrouded in mystery and swirling clouds of mist, your accommodation perfectly mirrors the environment, and is created to resemble a shipwreck.

The design of the lodge was inspired by the many ships that have been wrecked on the Skeleton Coast. We emphasise a light footprint by eco-friendly water and waste management and by using solar-power.

Skeleton Coast National Park

Located in the famous Skeleton Coast concession between the Hoarusib and Hoanib rivers in the Skeleton Coast National Park, Shipwreck Lodge is only 45 km from Möwe Bay. The shipwreck-shaped cabins are nestled between the dunes with a view of the Atlantic Ocean where the cold Benguela current provides guests with a refreshing breeze.

SPECTACULAR SWEEPING VIEWS

NOTHING QUITE LIKE IT

10 chalets, cleverly designed to resemble shipwrecks, are spread out along the sand dunes. Offering eight twin or double rooms, and two family tents; all are ensuite and solar-powered, and feature a glorious wood burning stove for the mornings and evening, which can get quite chilly.

BREATH-TAKING VISTAS AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE

RAW, RUGGED & REMOTE

Take a game drive in Skeleton Coast National Park to track elusive lions and discover the enchanting desert flora and the tok-tokkie beetles that survive in the cold ocean fog. Jump on a 4×4 to get up-close to the thousands of year-old clay castles and marvel at their unique and odd shapes as they tower above you. See Cape fur seals lounging on the rocks and swimming by the hundreds in the freezing, frothy surf at the Mowe Bay. Stingrays, dolphins, humpback, sperm, and killer whales call the deep blues home.
