The kitesurfer's address — bungalows on the lagoon, full board.
Atlantic frontier
Dakhla
The peninsula, in a breath
A lagoon between the Atlantic and the Sahara.
Dakhla is far south — a peninsula of forty kilometres extending into the Atlantic, with a glass-flat lagoon on one side and full ocean swell on the other. Kitesurf capital of Africa.
Maison stays in Dakhla are sport-led — kitesurf, deep-sea fishing, oyster farms, desert excursions — with private flights from Casablanca or Marrakech.
