Dakhla
A desert peninsula between the dunes and the Atlantic — one of the wildest, most remote coastlines in Morocco.
Dakhla sits on a narrow desert peninsula in Morocco's deep south, where the Sahara runs straight into the Atlantic with almost nothing in between. It's remote in a way nowhere else on this list quite is — flat desert, a turquoise lagoon famous among kitesurfers worldwide, and a coastline that feels genuinely at the edge of the map.
This isn't a stop I add casually; it's a deliberate detour for guests who want genuine remoteness and world-class kite conditions, best reached by a direct flight rather than added on to a standard northern loop. For the right traveller, though, it's unlike anywhere else in the country.
Catch the Atlantic swell
Morning point breaks and argan hills on the laid-back coast at Taghazout.
Kitesurfing the lagoon
Flat, warm, shallow water and near-constant wind — genuinely one of the best learning conditions anywhere.
The desert-meets-ocean coastline
Dunes running straight down to Atlantic waves, with almost no development for long stretches.
White Dune & the lagoon views
A striking bright dune above the lagoon, best seen at sunset for the colour contrast.
Strong, reliable trade winds for kitesurfing and comfortable desert-coast temperatures.
The same steady wind conditions as spring, with fewer visitors.
Warm and windy — good conditions but a longer travel day either way.
Cooler and less crowded, with wind conditions still generally reliable.
Dakhla as a deliberate detour
Given the distance, Dakhla is usually treated as its own trip or a dedicated add-on reached by direct flight, rather than folded into a standard northern or southern loop.
Mustapha treats Dakhla as a deliberate, considered addition for guests who specifically want it.
