small city, last one before Mouritanie. Is situated on penisula. When you are entering it, it's looking like a real paradise! BUT THERE IS NO BEACH IN TOWN!!! Nearest one (very beautifull and totally empty) is next to checkpoint Acconnodation: cheep, nice, well situated and clean hotel Sahara - my recomendqtion (60drh for double room). Rest is propably in same price. Hotel Sahara Regency is top hotel in town with 4**** and huge price Why to Dakhla: best possibility to go to Mouritanie. Place in car costs 35-50€ (depends on car). In other case... only to feel african spirit. City have much more african character than rest in Marocco/Western Sahara Nightlife: typical for region - coffe or mint tea in cafe/restaurant. Didn't find any alcohol in shops. Food: restaurant SAMARQUAND is good
