  • from dakhla to bir guendouz (aprox. 400km) you only have one petrol station that sometimes can be out of gasoline or diesel.
    this is located i think 80 or 180 (hehehe sorry about the 100km difference) from bir guendouz!!

  • Border closes from 6pm to 8:30am
    If you come here you have to make sure you dont pass these times. the border in north morocco never closes but this one here has this special schedule.

    At Least Do This: when i was coming from mauritania to morocco (western sahara) for the first time i had to sleep on the mauritnian side cos the border here was closed. and it didnt make any sense of leaving the police protection area durgin night time in a very dangerous are where we could be killed.

     A beautiful place with an even beautiful blue sky..is it the camera or is it you?

     Sounds like a difficult & dangerous part of the world. Were you driving cars down to West Africa for sale, like they did in the '80s?
