Swakopmund - Etosha

How many days to plan between swakopmund and Etosha? We find out it's very difficult what the must sees are between that.

We don't know where to stay exactly? We have 6 nights to spend before we enter Etosha, but don't find out what the real highlights are / not to miss things when we leaving swakopmund.

How much time best to spend in swakopmund, we planned now 3 nights, but maybe less is also fine, we really don't know.

Hope someone can advice / tips etc

Thanks.

Hi Moswic,
Swakopmund - 3 nights: OK, what to do? Little 5 Tour (half day), Welwitchia Drive (3-4hrs, nice in the afternoon) Dolphin Cruise (at Walvis Bay, half day), Dinner at the Tug (Reservation as soon as possible, always full) walk the City, walk the Jetty. Enjoy the freshness of the sea.

Time to Etosha minimum one night to stay somewhere. Where to go, what to do, which route to take? Difficult, ask 3 people, get 10 answers. A guest Farm around Omaruru, Vingerclip, Palmwag, Twyfelfontain etc. Cape Cross, Spitzkoppe are things to see (or to smell, if you look at the seals in Cape Cross).

Hi moswic,
6 days between Swakopmund and Etosha for example:
1x Cape Cross (seals) and Spitzkoppe
2x Omaruru / Erongo / Ameib
3x Khorixas (Twyfelfontein, Petrified Forest, Damara Living Museum, Organpipes, Burned Mountain)

Hi Moswic,

Erongo, Damaraland (Desert Elephants, Petrified Forest, Twyfelfontein etc), Kaokoveld...
