Pomona is a ghost town in southern Namibia south of Lüderitz on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean.

It is about 15 km south of Elizabeth Bay, Namibia, in an area called Sperrgebiet, a diamond mining zone with restricted access.

After the discovery of guano deposits, the British annexed a number of islands off the coast of south-western Africa.

Two of these, Aaron de Pass and Captain John Spence, obtained mining rights from Chief David Christian along the coast between the shore and 15°50’ longitude.

De Beers became the owner of the mines; it kept control of the area until the 1990s, when the Namibian government purchased a fifty percent stake, forming a joint partnership called the Namdeb Diamond Corporation.
