Hardap Resort is situated about 260 km south of Windhoek and encompasses Namibia’s largest dam, Hardap, which is on the Fish River. A variety of accommodation options are available and facilities include a swimming pool, conference room, restaurant and shop.

Hardap Resort is well known as an angler’s paradise, with annual competitions held regularly for enthusiasts. But few know that the small Hardap Game Reserve is a haven for black rhino and that the dam and surroundings accommodate one of Namibia’s most strategic great-white-pelican breeding colonies and a thriving freshwater fish institute that is supporting the country’s growing aquaculture industry.
