Secret Spot Dakhla

Secret Spot is a small kitesurf camp pitched between the Dakhla lagoon and the desert, on the eastern shore of the lagoon, five minutes from the White Dune and a quarter of an hour from the Speed Spot. Guests sleep in tents inspired by Saharan bivouacs; meals are home-cooked and shared at a long table, and the camp deliberately limits how many people it takes.

The camp teaches and rents Cabrinha gear on site, with one kite per student and two to three students of the same level per instructor. Riding follows the tide: you sail in front of the camp from three hours before to three hours after high water, launching from the kite shack; at low tide the team drives riders to the White Dune by Land Rover, and that half-day is included in the price of the stay.

Off the water the camp runs desert excursions. The organisation stays loose: you only say before arriving whether you want lessons or rental, and everything is then arranged on site according to your level and the day's wind.
