Merzouga · Sahara Desert

Sandboarding in Erg Chebbi

Climb a dune, stand on your board and slide down the Sahara.

Sandboarding

Like Snowboarding, but on Sand

Sandboarding is a fun way to play in the desert. You walk up a big dune, stand or sit on a board, and slide down the soft sand. It is easy to learn, and every run is a lot of laughs.

Our guide gives you a board, shows you the best slopes and gives you simple tips. The walk up is a small workout, and the view from the top of the dune is worth it. Merry Desert Camp sits in the Erg Chebbi dunes near Merzouga, in the Moroccan Sahara.
