Huidige Tijd in Walvis Bay, Namibië — CAT.

Walvis Bay is a city in Namibia and the name of the bay on which it lies. It is the second largest city in Namibia and the largest coastal city in the country. The city covers an area of 29 square kilometres (11 sq mi) of land. The bay is a haven for sea vessels due to its harbour, protected by the Pelican Point sand spit, which is the only natural deep-water harbour along the country's coast. Being rich in plankton and marine life, these waters also draw large numbers of southern right whales, attracting whalers and fishing vessels.

Reading Walvis Bay against the global hubs: São Paulo (~6,195 km), Dubai (~6,927 km), London (~8,403 km) are the close ones, with Los Angeles (~15,280 km) sitting on the opposite side of the planet — a good gut check when judging logistics windows.

Walvis Bay sits inside Namibië — the Southern Africa subregion, capital Windhoek, languages Afrikaans, German, English, currency NAD ($), ZAR (R).

The closest mapped neighbors of Walvis Bay are Swakopmund (31 km), Katutura (266 km), Rehoboth (267 km), Windhoek (268 km), so commuter, logistics and same-day-trip planning will usually pull from this cluster.
