This is a relaxed experience, perfect for both nature lovers and families willing to discover the beautiful bay of Dakhla together with our resident Marine Biologist. The itinerary will bring you to the famed White Dune and to one of Dakhla's "secret spots", on the shore opposite to the White Dune itself. Both belong to the larger system of the bay of Dakhla, which is part of the RAMSAR international network for the protection of wetlands. Depending on tides, you will have plenty of time to gently stroll on these two long beaches searching for shells, fiddler crabs, marks left by rays, and (with a bit of luck) for one of the region's "living fossils" - come ready to walk barefoot on the sand...

Itinerary
1
Dune Blanche
One of Dakhla’s “must-see”, the White Dune is surrounded by the ocean at high tide, Flamingos often at sight. You will get there crossing Moon-like desert landscapes in our private 4x4. Once at the dune, and depending on tides, you will have plenty of time for beachcombing along its spectacular beach together with our resident Marine Biologist.
2 hours and 30 minutes
2
Oued Ed-Dahab-Lagouira
Secret Spot. The "Secret Spot" is a lovely stretch of shore opposite to the White Dune. This is one of the most important wetlands of the Dakhla bay, with an incredible variety of plants (including some living in the water!), birds and marine animals. Before getting there, you will enjoy a breath-taking view over the bay of Dakhla from a high-ground vantage point. This will provide further opportunities to discover how the region was formed, and to know more about its fauna and flora.
1 hour and 30 minutes
3
Dakhla
Seafront restaurant. After visiting the Secret Spot, you will get back to the peninsula of Dakhla and reach the seafront restaurant of your choice (we will be happy to advise, also based on your preferences and needs). This is also where our Marine Biologist's "treasure box" will be opened, and new discoveries will be made. We will bring you back mid afternoon and, depending on the position of your hotel, will do so taking the piste on the Atlantic side of the Dakhla peninsula.
