Dakhla

Dakhla is a really cool spot, it’s a massive flat lagoon split by a spit of land that opens onto choppier sea pretty much in the middle of the Sahara. It’s like the spit was built just to launch your kite and there’s good choice between flat or rough water. Further down the coast is a big wave spot for experienced guys to have a go at, but the flat side of the lagoon is fine for beginners, it’s pretty shallow and theres no trees or anything around to run into. Locals say you can surf here all year, its warm enough too, best wind in winter. Windsurfers love it here as well. Not much to do but surf though so if you like your nightlife maybe head to Brazil.
