Sandwich Harbour situated near Walvis Bay, is a silted up beach area and a sensitive environment that has gained international importance as a wetland.

The Naukluft Mountains serve as a sanctuary for Hartmann’s Mountain Zebra that are endemic to Namibia and the remote southwestern section of Angola.
