There are also mines and World War I remains.
If you're a fan of history, the Woermannhaus is a must-see. This former trading house from the turn of the century has a multi-story tower. It is a popular Swakopmund attraction because it is an example of the city's colonial past. This historic building was originally a water tower and has served as a school dormitory, a shelter for sailors, and as a local business. In 1976, it was declared a national monument.
The Swakopmund Aquarium is a great way to get an up-close look at the marine world of the South Atlantic Ocean. You'll get to see a variety of fish and sharks, and you can also learn more about the different species in the aquarium. The aquarium is also a great place for children. They'll love running through the glass tunnel.
