The compact car is suitable for navigating the city streets and parking in tight spaces. An SUV, on the other hand, provides better handling on gravel roads, which are commonly found in the surrounding areas. This is especially true if you plan to visit destinations like the Kuiseb Delta, Sandwich Harbor, or the Namib-Naukluft National Park, where gravel roads are common, and an SUV can provide better handling and stability.

In Walvis, parking is generally easy to find and often free in most areas. However, in some parts of the city centre, paid parking may be required. If you're headed to Independence Avenue in the city centre, known to be a bustling area with various shops, restaurants, and businesses, look out for paid parking zones, designated along the street to manage the high demand for parking in this popular area. The average cost for parking in these areas is around N$5 (£0.30) per hour.
