Surf: Situated just above the Tropic of Cancer, Dakhla may well be the most straightforward surf destination in Western Sahara. Finding a place to stay is quite easy and the 40km long peninsula counts several reefs and pointbreaks which don’t require too much searching. The 240 step lighthouse offers a great panoramic views. There are also beachbreaks such as Hansouane and Pointe de l’Or. Ponta Negra was considered for an international bodyboard contest.
