ABANDONED TOWN BURIED BY SAND - SAILING AFRICA's DIAMOND COAST
ABANDONED TOWN BURIED BY SAND - SAILING AFRICA's DIAMOND COAST
Set sail with us along Namibia's mysterious and rugged Diamond coast - a place where ghost towns rise from the desert sands, seals outnumber people, and boat jobs never end.
This week's adventure begins aboard as Rob is crowned the undisputed king of plumbing after saving our water system. But we soon head ashore to explore Kolmanskop, once a glittering hub of diamond dreams, now an eerie ghost town half buried in sand.
We also join the friendly folks of Luderitz for their hilariously chaotic fundraiser, the Barrel run. It's beer, wheelbarrows, and a cherry pip that wasn't a cherry pip...
After the lush coasts of South Africa, Namibia feels like another planet, vast, dry, and full of surprises.Thanks for joining us on this unforgettable leg of our sailing journey.
