Henties Bay is Namibia's beloved angling hub on the Skeleton Coast, known for surf fishing, lichen fields and easy access to seal colonies and shipwrecks.
Henties Bay is Namibia's premier angling town, strung along the cold Atlantic shoreline of the Skeleton Coast where surf fishermen cast for kabeljou, galjoen and blacktail from miles of open beach. Originally established as a weekend retreat for anglers, the town retains its unpretentious, salt-sprayed character amid lichen fields and gravel plains. It serves as a convenient base for exploring the Skeleton Coast's shipwrecks, seal colonies and otherworldly desert scenery.
