Namport and Belgium's Port Authority of Antwerp, Bruges International, hosted a sundowner dinner in honour of the visiting King of the Belgians and President Nangolo Mbumba.

The engagement is part of the schedule of the visiting King Philippe, who is in Namibia on a five-day state visit.

The King of the Belgians landed at Walvis Bay International Airport as he continues his visit to Namibia.

When the Airbus A330-400 commercial aeroplane landed, officials say it was the largest aeroplane the Walvis Bay International Airport has ever received in two decades.
