I stayed at the Salty Jackal for one night, and participated in two, guided surf trips with the Salty Jackal. The first guided surf trip was a full day and the second guided surf trip was a half day. The hostel is extremely clean, peaceful and well kept, and the staff are professional and attentive. What sets this hostel apart is the sense of community that can be felt whether you’re lounging in the comfortable, outdoor communal space or hanging out with guests and staff at hostel events, such as a Sunday braai. As for the surfing, the Salty Jackal guided me through two of the most memorable surf sessions I can recall. The staff truly cares about creating nothing short of incredible surf experiences for their guests. Whether you’re a beginning, intermediate or advanced surfer, you’re missing out if you don’t take the time to go surfing with the Salty Jackal. I’d go as far as saying that surfing with the Salty Jackal is a reason in and of itself to visit Namibia.
