harmony with the environment and
offering a new lifestyle of comfort
and attraction.

Why
Swakopmund
With the current and predicted growth of
Swakopmund the need for an alternative retail
outlet is not disputable. Based at Mile 3 and
taking into account the current developments, the
Waterfront will be based in the center of
Swakopmund within the next decade.
At the moment the historical central business
district of Swakopmund is under enormous
amount of pressure to constantly acclimatise to
the increasing growth for which it was never
designed.
The Waterfront will be the
destination of choice for
entertainment and relaxation
with a strong food and fashion
component.
The increasing of CBD traffic and the lack of
access to parking threatens to destroy the
unique character of this beautiful town.
