About
Quick facts: Expansive dunes stretch over 6,000 hectares creating a desert-like landscape by the ocean. The park hosts a rare variety of native plants adapted to thrive in salty, sandy conditions.
Highlights: Vivid white sand dunes towering up to 12 meters contrast sharply with the deep blue sea, making the views almost surreal. At sunset, the shifting dunes glow warm orange, transforming the terrain into a painter's palette of natural colors.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy, closed shoes to protect against hot or shifting sand.
- Bring a wide-brimmed hat and sunscreen as shade is minimal.
- Best photos are taken during golden hour just before sunset for magical lighting.
- Avoid the midday heat by starting your visit early or later in the afternoon.
