Port of Lüderitz

Luderitz, Namibia

The Port of Lüderitz, located 254 nautical miles south of the Port of Walvis Bay along Namibia’s coastline, is a crucial gateway serving the southern part of Namibia with efficient logistical services and strong links to various towns within Namibia and South Africa. This port plays a vital role in supporting the fishing industry, offshore diamond mining, and the fruit export industry, particularly grapes from Aussenkehr and the Northern Cape Province. With modern infrastructure including a new 500m quay, 60-tonne Haulers, and a 45-tonne Reach Stacker, the Port of Lüderitz ensures safe and efficient cargo handling for importers and exporters. Namport has initiated plans for dedicated bulk facilities to meet the growing demands of the mining sector. Moreover, the port acts as a pivotal hub for mining commodities transportation, serving the mines in the southern regions of Namibia and north-western South Africa. Additionally, it is a significant base for the local fishing industry.
