Overview

Sandboarding in Merzouga for everyone

Sandboarding in Merzouga is pure fun. The high, smooth dunes of Erg Chebbi are perfect for sliding down on a board, sitting or standing.

Your guide shows you how to sit, steer and stop, then picks a slope that fits your level. Add it to a quad, buggy or camel ride for a full desert afternoon.

About the trip

How it works

We walk or ride to a good dune, wax the board and start on a small slope. When you feel ready, we go to a higher dune. The walk up is the hard part, the ride down is the fun part.
