Dakhla Kitesurfing

Dakhla is consistently rated among the top five kitesurfing destinations in the world — the lagoon provides flat water for beginners, the open ocean provides waves for advanced riders, and the trade winds blow at 20-30 knots for most of the year without interruption. The kitesurfing infrastructure arrived in the 2000s and transformed a remote Saharan outpost into an international destination.
