About this spot
White Dune
The White Dune (Dune Blanche) is the postcard image of Dakhla — a bright sand dune dropping straight into the turquoise lagoon, about 40 minutes north of the city.
Local conditions
- Visit in the morning: the afternoon wind blows sand hard across the dune
- Temperature swing between sunrise and mid-afternoon is the biggest in the region
- Almost zero rainfall year-round — cloud cover is the main visual variable
