Brakwater (Afrikaans: brackish water) is a settlement north of Windhoek in the Khomas Region of Namibia. It belongs to the Windhoek Rural electoral constituency.

Brakwater was the end point of the first 17 km of non-gravel road in South West Africa, when Windhoek's main road to the North was tarred in 1957. This road today is part of the B1 national road.
