Surf World-Famous Skeleton Bay in Namibia in Luxury!

Nestled on the secluded Pelican Point peninsula in Walvis Bay, Pelican Point Lodge offers a truly remarkable destination for creating unforgettable memories.

Surrounded by untouched Atlantic Ocean beaches with their world-renowned waves on one side and the serene Walvis Bay Lagoon on the other, the hotel aims to provide its guests with a one-of-a-kind experience. Unwind, and immerse yourself in the enchanting beauty of one of Africa’s most captivating settings.

The Lodge

Pelican Point Lodge is an extraordinary destination, nestled in the remote and captivating landscape of Namibia’s Skeleton Coast. Once a harbour control building, it has been transformed into an elegant boutique hotel, featuring 10 individually decorated suites. Among them is the remarkable Captain’s Cove, a spacious penthouse suite offering breathtaking 360-degree views of the Pelican Point Peninsula.

The Lounge and dining area offer spectacular views whilst dining. Best views over the bay and desert dunes are best enjoyed from the spacious deck which is also the perfect place to watch amazing sunsets.

Waves at Pelican Point Lodge

Onto the sand spit that protects Walvis Bay and leads to Pelican Point and the lighthouse, you will find the world-famous Skeleton Bay. Aka Donkey Bay, this wave has gained international recognition as one of the best waves in the world by professional surfers. With the potential for 2km of picture-perfect draining barrels in ankle-deep water, this wave is heavy, fast and possibly the best and longest barrel you will ever witness.

From May to Sept, you can expect consistent 6-10ft SW-W swells with the more westward swells being particularly favourable. There’s also a variety of rocky reefs and points waiting to be discovered along the 40km stretch.

Why We Love Pelican Point Lodge

Uncrowded waves and some of the most epic barrels in the world!

The full-inclusive package on offer is great value, with food, beverage and plenty of activities included!

Trip of a lifetime. First and foremost I'd like to thank James Colston from Awave Travel, for assisting me in every which way to help book one of the most memorable experiences I've had in my life. He was extremely responsive and answered every single question I had, even the dumb ones haha. As for AYADA, holy dooly, that place is paradise! Absolutely breathtaking, I couldn't believe I was actually walking around such a beautiful island! Big love to the staff at Magu Restaurant, seeing as how I ate there pretty much everyday, they were amazing! Very switched on and quick off the mark to help with anything that was needed. A special mention to Dhaboa and the captain who took me out surfing! I cannot speak highly enough about their friendly, helpful and straight up on point expertise. With Dhaboa picking the spots to surf and tips on where to sit to catch the best waves on the day, to the wonderful captain himself, filming and sending me videos of the waves I caught.
Absolute legends! Made my surf trip! Best holiday I've ever been on to this date.

Reliable travel agency to book a surf trip - Both Giulia and James were very reactive and adivsed on the best options. In our case we made a boat trip in Maldives. It is the second time we use Awave Travel to do a surftrip to Maldives and we have had a very good experience in both cases. They are a reliable and trustworthy travel agency, I highly recommend them.

Professional and Top Notch! From the moment we started planning our trip AWAVE was responsive and professional. We had a lot of back and forth picking the perfect location and resort and James and Giulia were patient and helpful. The resort we stayed at, AYADA in the Maldives, was beautiful and relaxing- great for families and couples! It was perfect for us- we have 1 surfer in the family, he was able to enjoy the waves and we also were able to enjoy the reef and snorkel as a family. Our kids loved the kids club and the private pool on the beach villas was amazing. The alcohol is expensive if you don’t do full board but that is to be expected. Wonderful vacation and amazing travel agency! Definitely recommend!!

I've used Awave twice ... so far. This is the second time I've used Awave for a trip to the maldives. Stayed in 2 different resorts this time. They've always been incredibly prompt at replying and handled everything for us, making sure the 2 Resorts were in touch to get us transfered half way through our trip. At one of the resorts I even bumped into Giulia and Delia who were out there surfing at the time. There's no doubt in my mind that I'll use awave again if I'm booking a surf trip

Indonesia Surf Trip/ Java/Bali/Sumba - James Colston was my representative from AWAVE - I’m an older solo surfer and James was attentive, respectful, extremely responsive from the initial planning stages all the way through the booking. And he was so patient with all my crazy questions along the way. I couldn’t have been more pleased with James’s level of service. Thank you James

Giulia was an amazing person to book with. I was overwhelmed with choices initially, but AWAVE knew their stuff and helped me with my options and even suggested delaying my trip so I could go to a certain hotel which ended up being the best decision I made all year.
