The absolute highlight of our trip to Dakhla! Seeing the stark white sand of the dune plunging directly into the bright blue lagoon is a breathtaking contrast. The 4×4 ride through the desert was thrilling,
Laurent Dubois
A perfect day trip to experience the natural magic of this region. After taking in the incredible panoramic views at the Dune Blanche, relaxing at the Asmaa hot spring was exactly what we needed. The thermal sulfur water is famously good for the skin and incredibly relaxing. Ending the afternoon drinking authentic Sahrawi tea in the desert was the cherry on top. Highly recommend booking this!
