Coastal lodging at the entrance to the Skeleton Coast

Cape Cross Lodge is located on Namibia’s remote Skeleton Coast, approximately 120 km north of Swakopmund, making it an excellent destination for travelers seeking to explore the Skeleton Coast or wishing to pause en route to the Damaraland region or northern Namibia.

Explore the intriguing on-site museum, admire artworks by local artisans, or stroll down the beach from the lodge.  A visit to the Cape Cross Seal Colony to witness the Cape fur seal and the Petrified Lagoon is essential.  Excursions to the Messum Volcanic Crater and Shipwreck Discovery, together with eco-friendly tours in the Namibian Desert, are commendable activities.

The lodge features expansive glass windows that maximize natural light and harmonize with its environment.  The lounge and dining spaces feature inviting fires to counteract the Benguela chill.  The 20 suites each include an en-suite bathroom, a tea/coffee station, and a private terrace furnished with wood and offering sea views.  Meals are selected from an à la carte menu, either outdoors on the verandah or indoors in the dining room, while the cocktail bar and private cellar provide an exquisite assortment of wines and spirits.
