Someday we will visit Ad Dakhla or begin to dream about going there! However, for now its not on our radar. Let us know in the comments if you think that should change!

Ad Dakhla

Ad Dakhla is a city in southern Western Sahara.

The area has been inhabited by Berbers since ancient times. Oulad Dlim is an Arab tribe of Himyari from Yemen that settled in the Sahara in the twelfth century. Dakhla was expanded by Spanish settlers during the expansion of their empire. The Spanish interest in the desert coast of Western Africa's Sahara arose as the result of fishing carried out from the nearby Canary Islands by Spanish fishers and as a result of the Barbary pirates menace.
