Kitesurfing in Dakhla-Oued Ed-Dahab
9 spots · 1 destination · 19 schools
Dakhla's ocean side gets one entry here, and it's a wave spot, not the lagoon the region is famous for.
Pointe de l'Or sits on a rocky point across the peninsula from the lagoon camps, catching Atlantic swell into a small bay from May through September on steady trade wind. No permanent rescue and remote access keep it intermediate-and-up territory.

When you may ride
the rules these spots carry, with the year on each
Dakhla Main Lagoon / PK25Dakhla2026Centres require every guest to be a confident swimmer, because parts of the lagoon are deep depending on the tide (2026).
Speed SpotDakhla2026Low tide only. The bank that makes the flat lane surfaces as the water drops and the lane closes as it fills back in, so every 2026 camp session is scheduled off the tide table rather than the clock.
Foum Labouir (Oum Laboiur)Dakhla20252025: the beach is on Morocco's national Blue Flag list, which brings managed bathing zones, posted signage and rescue equipment for the summer bathing season - stay clear of the marked swimming area.
La SargaDakhla20262026: no municipal or federation rule page covers Lassarga.
Turtle Bay (La Tour d'Eole)Dakhla2026Riding here is organised around the on-site school rather than a public beach: boat safety covers supervised areas and the centre's own clients, and independent riders are expected to arrange their own cover before launching (2026).
White Dune (Dune Blanche)Dakhla2026The guided White Dune downwinder runs on high tide with north wind only, takes a minimum of three riders, is limited to advanced kitesurfers and wingfoilers at VDWS Level 5 or equivalent, and costs 55 EUR in 2026. No lifeboat follows the group because of the shallow sections; a 4x4 collects riders at the end of the roughly 20 km route.
El Argoub (Heliophora)Dakhla2026Heliophora's published 2026 rates: group lessons 78 EUR for 2 hours rising to 500 EUR for 14 hours, semi-private from 125 EUR, private from 185 EUR, private foil from 190 EUR, extra hour +32 EUR group and +68 EUR private.

Oyster Farm / Secret SpotDakhla20262026: no kitesurf permit, launch fee, closed season or marked kite zone was found for the oyster-farm flat, and no operator mentions one. What does apply is the bay itself.
Pointe de L'OrDakhla2026No particular spot rules are reported either; ask a local before you ride.
Each block is the opening of the record's own rule, kept in its own words. Where two postings do not line up, both are kept and neither is picked for you.
