The C34 (old designation: main road MR 44)[1] is a secondary route on Namibia Atlantic coast. It is long, leading from Swakopmund via Henties Bay to Torra Bay.[2]

The road surface of the C34 consists of a sand-salt mixture.[3] In 2019 the C34 was tarred between Swakopmund and Henties Bay. The C34 crosses the Omaruru River north of Henties Bay. The bridge was built in 1980 and renovated in 2019.[1] [4]
