Windless in Dakhla...

During our Moroccan escape, we had a couple of days with no wind. A torture that had devastating consequences...


But no problem, there was a range of other activities we could do to occupy the time when the air was still. For example, a mere 25 minutes walk from the camp (through a desert landscape), we found a nice surfing spot (and a wonderful wave spot for kiting, by the way!).


If you don't feel like surfing, you can always get an old board and try hitting the slopes on the dunes. Or you can get a taxi and go for a tour in the port and the old part of Dakhla. It's a refreshing change from the usual "harassment" that greets foreigners in the medinas of Fez or Marrakesh.


And if you get really, really bored and already tried doing pretty much everything there is to do, dig into your imagination, 'cause a silly idea will surely pop-up!
