About Renting a Car at Dakhla Center

Dakhla Center sits on a narrow peninsula along Morocco's Atlantic coast and serves as a perfect starting point for exploring the desert-like region of southwestern Sahara. From here, you drive north along the coastal road toward Boujdour, a stretch of just over 180 kilometers through desolate yet magnificent landscapes where the Atlantic meets sand dunes. South, the road leads toward the Mauritania border, and along the route you pass the lagoons that make Dakhla world-famous among kitesurfers and windsurfers.

The best time to visit is October to April, when the temperature is pleasant and the wind is perfect for adventures along the coast.

We compare prices from all major providers at Dakhla Center so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
