Full Day Tour Shipwreck Sandwich Harbour Adventure
The Namibian South-Atlantic west coast is famously dangerous with foggy weather, many reefs, strong Benguela Current and swells. It is shrewn with countless remains of dead ships. One of these is the Shawnee a transport tug that ran aground on 16 February 1976, 15 miles north of Conception Bay. Another is the wreck of the Eduard Bohlen passenger and cargo ship, that ran aground south of Conception Bay on 5 September 1909 in thick fog and now lie about 600m inland.
