The Tropic of Capricorn, located at 23.5 degrees south latitude, marks the southernmost point where the sun can be directly overhead. In Namibia, road signs marking the Tropic appear on routes between Sossusvlei and Walvis Bay, and near Mariental on the way to Windhoek. While it passes through several countries, including Argentina, Australia, and South Africa, it is not a fixed line and shifts slightly north each year. The signs in Namibia are a popular stop for travelers, offering a unique photo opportunity and a chance to leave a mark on this geographical landmark.

    The Tropic of Capricorn sign south of Rehoboth is a fun photo stop, but not worth going out of your way since there's another along the route to Sossusvlei from Walvis Bay. If you’re passing by, it’s a quick and quirky stop for a snapshot!

    The experience of reaching one of the Tropics for the first time was splendid. This sight was really great as it highlighted our exploration journey all the way from South Africa.
