Where endless desert meets some of the world’s best watersports

Ssalamū ‘lekum, and welcome to a country that will make you feel like a trail blazing explorer from your first sight of its awe-inspiring landscapes. Whether you’re driving, trekking or mountain biking, the desert provides a playground for an adventure of a lifetime. But it’s not all sand-dunes. Make time to visit the kasbah in Agadir offers a rare insight into this area’s history (much of which was destroyed by earthquakes in the 50s), or try your hand at kite surfing in the bay of Dakhla. Keep an eye for one of Western Sahara’s strangest residents: the goats, who can often be spotted climbing to the top of trees! So whether you prefer sipping tea with a Saharawi or searching the desert for rocks that look oddly like Napoleon’s hat, VISIT WESTERN SAHARA!
