Upon arriving at Halifax Island, your captain will stop so you can enjoy some time taking photos and watching the penguins dive into the water and waddle among the rocks.
On your cruise back to the pier, enjoy views of the hills of Lüderitz that surround the bay, Shark Island with its Lighthouse and fishing boats bringing in their daily catch.
