Namibia’s Tiny Dead Sea: Float Like You’re in Israel | Strathmore South

Did you know that Namibia has its very own miniature Dead Sea—where you can almost walk on water, just like in Israel? The Strathmore South tin mine is an old, worked-out mine that has naturally filled with underground water. Thanks to its high mineral content, the water is incredibly salty, allowing you to float effortlessly. Locals affectionately call it the ‘Soutgat’, Afrikaans for “Salt Hole.” Mining operations in the area ran from around 1965 to 1990, but when yields dropped, many mines were abandoned. Today, the site offers a unique natural experience, and some even claim the water has healing properties—especially when angelically stirred... Join me as I explore this hidden gem of Namibia, a tiny Dead Sea tucked away in the desert! https://flymachine.au   / hannes.van.der.walt.417205   #NamibiaDeadSea #StrathmoreSouth #Soutgat #NamibiaTravel #FloatingOnWater #HiddenGemsNamibia #AdventureTravel #UniqueExperiences #TravelNamibia #NamibiaNature
