1 Day 4x4 Shipwreck Tour
Come and enjoy the mysterious Diamond Coast between Kleinzee and Koingnaas with well trained guides! A visit to this unspoilt part of the West Coast with its natural beauty, fauna and flora and cultural diversity will be an unforgettable experience. This Shipwreck Coastal Trail is 37km of 4x4 fun! Over the years the stormy Atlantic Ocean has prevented many ships from completing their voyages, sending them to final resting-places along the Namakwa Coast.

Departure:
You must depart from Naries at 07h00, with your own 4x4, following a partly tar/ partly gravel road to Kleinzee (115 km), where you will be met by your guide at Noup, 09:00 sharp.

What will we do?
Three shipwrecks; namely the Piratiny, Arosa and Border, will be visited during this tour. Your guide will point out and inform you about the rich cultural history behind the archaeological sites (on your way), isolated beaches and diver's camps.

At lunchtime you will have the opportunity to enjoy your pre-packed lunch and prepare for your journey back to Naries.
