Feel the thrill as you speed across the rolling sand dunes, reaching one of the highest points to soak in the stunning views and snap some photos.
At this scenic spot, try your hand at sand boarding down the soft slopes. Later, unwind and watch the sunset from a spectacular vantage point, complete with chilled champagne, fresh fruit, snacks, and other refreshments. If the skies are clear, you’ll also get to marvel at the incredible starlit sky.
