Directory candidate — exact launch verification needed

Hazards

Bay/city pin does not establish foil-safe depth. Confirm the exact legal launch, lagoon shallows/sand, harbour traffic, strong wind, cold water/fog and downwind recovery locally.

“Directory provides a dedicated Walvis Bay wingfoil forecast and names Swakopmund as a nearby alternative. City/bay pin only; exact deep-water foil launch is not established by this source. Requested-field batch 05 verified 2026-08-01: exact, nearby, area-pin and route-endpoint relationships are explicit; unresolved items remain Unknown.”
