Kitesurfing in Dakhla and all you need to know about the kitesurfing spots around Dakhla:

The lagoon of Dakhla is a paradise for kitesurfing thanks to the pleasant temperatures all year round and the constant wind. For more than five years we have been at the northern, "small" lagoon of Dakhla. This year we are back in Dakhla with a brand new kite school and current Core and North Kiteboarding equipment.

The kitespot is ideal for learning to kitesurf and perfecting freestyle tricks. The kitespots offer plenty of space on the water. Of course, kitesurfing courses are also offered by certified and multi-lingual instructors - whether for beginners, intermediates or special courses such as wave kitesurfing.

The result: A perfect kitesurfing destination for beginners, intermediates, freestylers and wave kiters.

The resort is located right on the lagoon and offers you comfort with a direct view of the kite spot. Each Room and Villa feels like a small private home. The heart of the resort is the open air restaurant with a 180 degree panoramic view of the spot through a large glass wall. This is where guests gather for breakfast, lunch and dinner, or simply to relax in the lounge area. Next door you'll find the KiteWorldWide Pro Center Dakhla.

The restaurant offers a refreshing local and international cuisine, showcasing the best local produce and delicious Moroccan traditions. 

And when the wind dies down, there are plenty of activities to keep you occupied.

The Dakhla peninsula possesses many assets that built its reputation around the world: a daily sun, a regular wind blowing between 15 and 25 knots more than 300 days per year, a flat and shallow water on the lagoon side and amazing waves on the ocean side. Besides being a paradise for water sports, Dakhla is also a great place for travelers seeking wild landscapes and high quality seafood.
