Dune view | Wild Camping

The area lies just outside a residential area that seems relatively well off. We went to check the place in the afternoon and decided to go back to town and come back at night. Around 9.30, some very friendly police officers showed up and told us they wanted to give us a fair warning about this place. They were just patrolling and emphasized it was completely fine for us to camp there, but sometimes crime happens here so they suggested to us to go to a campsite or at least lock all our belongings in the canopy. It was too late to move, and we decided on the latter. There was no problems for us, and we can't really judge whether there's a high risk staying here. Due to the ambient light at night, you could see the car from quite far away.

I would probably have driven out to the next site or gone further down the plateau before camping if I were to choose again.

However, the site is nice a with a good view.

We stayed one night here in our RTT. Some road noise but nice views. Avoid arriving at night; there's a steep drop -off into the dry riverbed.

An other possibility to spend the night in Swakopmund. No people around and nice view over the dunes.
