Elizabeth Bay

Elizabeth Bay, llamada en su día Elisabethbucht, es una pequeña ciudad minera abandonada, que se encuentra a unos 30 kilómetros de Kolmanskop, en la costa de Sperrgebiet, al sur de la península de Luderitz, en Namibia.

La ciudad estuvo habitada entre 1926 y 1935 gracias a una mina de diamantes cercana que produjo las piedras preciosas entre 1911 y 1948, se cerró y volvió a abrir en 1991, con métodos de explotación modernos. Los mineros viven actualmente en Lüderitz y la mina se puede visitar desde esta ciudad.
