Langstrand (Afrikaans and German for "Long Beach", which the town is often called, too, among English-speaking tourists) is a small beach resort on the Atlantic coast in western Namibia. Langstrand and its neighboring sister resort Dolfynstrand lies between Walvis Bay and Swakopmund. It is, for the most part, an upscale beach resort where many have beach homes to escape the interior heat in Namibia.
