Dakhla Day Tour

Dakhla is in Western Sahara, a sparsely-populated area of mostly desert on the northwest coast of Africa. A former Spanish colony, it was annexed by Morocco in 1975. Since then it has been the subject of a long-running territorial dispute between Morocco and its indigenous Saharawi people.

We only stayed in Dakhla for 3 days on our way to Mauritania and we decided to join a group tour arranged by our hostel because we like the convenience :)

Here's our itinerary:

Ostrich Farm
La Dune Blanche
Porto Rico Beach
Imlili Desert
Asmaa Hot spring source

Did we feel safe in Dakhla?

Yes. At least we can say this based on our experience. We have walked around Dakhla by ourselves day and night and felt safe. We didn't see beggars on the street nor were we harassed in the markets when trying to buy things.

Did we enjoy the tour?

Definitely!
We only had to share with 2 Moroccans plus the driver and we got along really well. We could have skipped the Ostrich Farm but the rest were fun and can highly recommend.
