Dune 7 is a large sand dune outside Walvis Bay, Namibia, part of the dune belt that stretches from Walvis Bay to Swakopmund. It takes its name from having stood seven miles from the town centre and has become one of the most popular coastal tourist attractions in the region. The dune was free to visit for many years until an entry fee was introduced on 1 December 2022.
