Private Dune and Secret Spot Tour in Dakhla
Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
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! The area is home (or an important stop-over) for resident and migratory birds, such as Flamingos, Herons, Egrets, Spoonbills, Gulls and Terns. Desert fauna and flora are also flourishing just around these two spots, including plants of traditional importance and unbelievable parasitic flowers.

What To Expect
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.
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.
