The Namibia Maritime Museum, located in Lüderitz's historic power station as part of the Lüderitz Waterfront, is the country's national museum dedicated to maritime history and oceanography. Opened in September 2024 after years of construction, it is the largest museum of its kind in Africa. Spanning five floors and 2,500 square meters, it showcases Namibia's maritime heritage, replacing and expanding upon the former private collection "Lüderitz Maritim" by Angel Tordesillas.

The Namibia Maritime Museum in Lüderitz is a must-visit gem! Housed in the historic Lüderitz Old Power Station, the museum beautifully combines history and culture over five well-curated decks. The exhibits are diverse and captivating, featuring everything from intricately crafted ship models to fascinating collections of coins and stamps. My personal highlight was the aquariums, which added a vibrant touch to the maritime theme and showcased the region's rich marine life. Each section of the museum is thoughtfully designed, making it easy to navigate and deeply engaging. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall experience. Whether you're a maritime enthusiast or just looking for an insightful afternoon, this museum is well worth the visit. Highly recommended!
