Le Dumont d’Urville · Africa

Senegal and Namibia: Dakar and Walvis Bay

12 nights · 25. November - 7. December 2026 · Dakar → Walvis Bay

Discover the voyage↓

Twelve nights as a pure ocean passage carry you aboard Le Dumont d'Urville from Dakar in Senegal to Walvis Bay on Namibia's Atlantic coast. The route follows the western edge of Africa through the Gulf of Guinea and across the equator southward. Long sea days create space for lectures, quiet observation of the Atlantic and atmospheric time in the Blue Eye lounge beneath the waterline. With only 184 guests, the voyage keeps the character of a small, cultivated yacht. Walvis Bay welcomes you with the dune world of the Namib and the nearby Sossusvlei.
