Discover This Water-Skiing Station In The Middle Of The Desert

This is not a mirage! You really can enjoy this incredible ski station right in the middle of the desert.

Kitesurfing on the lagoon in Dakhla, Western Sahara, Morocco

Located at the end of the Sahara Desert and on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, Dakhla has a massive waterfront that extends for 45 kilometres (28 miles), a perfect location for the most magical holidays. Near this waterfront, the first water-skiing station has now opened, right in the middle of the desert.

Dakhla Attitude Cable Park has a cable system that ensures a smooth experience of the sport, giving an adrenaline rush that is perfect for big-thrill enthusiasts. Water-skiing is also a good alternative to surfing when the winds are too strong in Dakhla.

Dakhla Attitude Cable Park’s system is installed on a massive swimming pool measuring 140 by 45 metres (459 by 148 feet) with two big springboards and smaller ones for the younger kids. You can also enjoy a variety of water sports such as kitesurfing, wake-skating, wakeboarding and even kneeboarding.

The centre has all the equipment needed for each and every sport, so you can just buckle up and enjoy the ride!
