Dakhla brings together landscapes you rarely find side by side: a still lagoon on one side, the Atlantic on the other, and between them miles of desert dotted with pale dunes. A quad is the most direct way to string them together.
Six routes cover every appetite. La Falaise, an hour along the shoreline, suits a first time out. Le Sportif adds the dunes, La Dune Blanche runs to the ridge of sand that drops into the lagoon, and Le Complet, three and a half hours, takes in the white dune, a sandboarding session, a stop at the hot spring and a tea break. The Locked Route is a mystery course, quoted on request.
Good to know: the price depends on the route and, where the format allows, on riding solo or two up. A thirty-minute sandboarding session can be added for 20 €. Open daily from 9am to 9pm, hotel transfer included, and **every booking is for two quads minimum**.
