Over
Korte feiten: Een uitgestrekt gebied van gouden zandduinen die zich over 12 kilometer uitstrekken, gevormd door winden uit de Sahara. De duinen fungeren als een unieke kustelijke oase waar zeldzame planten en trekvogels leven.
Hoogtepunten: Levendige zandgolven bereiken hoogtes tot 10 meter en creëren een surrealistisch woestijnlandschap aan zee. Bij zonsondergang gloeien de duinen in warme tinten, wat een betoverend uitzicht biedt dat fotografen wereldwijd nastreven.
Insidertips
- Wear sturdy sandals or barefoot to comfortably walk on warm sand.
- Bring a wide-brim hat and sunscreen; shade is scarce in the dunes.
- Capture the best photos during golden hour facing west toward the sunset.
- Start your visit from the less crowded eastern edge near the old lighthouse.
