Cape Cross Seal Reserve
Skeleton Coast, Erongo Region, Namibia
Cape Cross Seal Reserve, located on Namibia’s rugged Skeleton Coast in the Erongo Region, is one of the country’s most famous wildlife attractions and home to one of the world’s largest colonies of Cape fur seals.
During the breeding season, the reserve can host more than 200,000 seals along its rocky shoreline, creating an impressive wildlife spectacle. The reserve is also historically significant as the site where Portuguese explorer Diogo Cão erected a stone cross in 1486, marking one of the earliest European landings on the Namibian coast.
Today, visitors can enjoy close-up seal viewing from boardwalks while experiencing the dramatic landscape where the Namib Desert meets the Atlantic Ocean.
