Air quality is the European AQI from the CAMS model via Open-Meteo — modelled for a grid cell, not measured at a local station. PM values are modelled concentrations in µg/m³. CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) via Open-Meteo.
This is an inland desert location. Marine, tide and kitesurf readings are not shown because they do not apply here.

Open-Meteo refreshes the underlying forecast model roughly once an hour, so a displayed value can be up to about an hour old. This page is cached for up to 15 minutes and rebuilt on the next visit after that, so the fetch time above may be older than your page load.

Forecast confidence and limitations
This page shows model output, not measurements. How far ahead a value sits is the clearest guide to how much weight to put on it.
1. Near-term forecast
Today and tomorrow. Timing of the wind build-up and the session window is usually usable for planning a day.
2. Medium-range forecast
Days three to five. The pattern is generally reliable; exact wind strength and hours often shift.
3. Extended outlook
Beyond five days. Treat it as a trend for trip planning, not as a schedule — it will change.
Dakhla's wind is partly thermal: the Sahara heats up inland and pulls ocean air across the peninsula. Fog, the lagoon shore and the dunes all sit inside a single model grid cell of roughly 11 km, so the beach can differ from the grid-cell forecast.
Before going on the water, check the conditions in front of you and with your camp or school.
