After the photo session, we will head to Puerto Rico Beach for another artistic photo session with golden sand, beautiful rocks, and turquoise waters. Our photographer will help you strike the perfect pose and capture your beautiful moments at this picturesque location. You can choose to wear a different outfit or accessorize to create a unique look for this photo session.
Then, we will proceed to the Sebkha of Imlili, located in the middle of the Sahara desert. Here, you can witness the fish that inhabit the sebkha, which are carnivorous and offer a natural pedicure by nibbling on dead skin or calluses. Our photographer will be with you to capture this unique and adventurous experience. You can choose to take photos of this experience or skip it and proceed to the next location.
Next, we will visit a traditional Sahrawi tent, where you will be served delicious Sahrawi tea and a traditional meal of nomad's camel meat with race.

At the end of our adventure-filled day, why not indulge in a therapeutic experience at Ain Asmaa? Located in the heart of the desert dunes, this natural hot spring offers an invigorating hot and sulphurous shower experience, as water flows from the depths of the Earth at a temperature around 38°C. Despite its sulphurous odour, don't let that put you off from experiencing the rejuvenating and healing properties of the hydrogen sulphide-rich water, which is known to have many positive effects on the body and mind. After a day of exploring and adventure, Ain Asmaa is the perfect place to unwind and revitalize yourself, leaving you feeling relaxed and rejuvenated for the rest of your stay in Dakhla.
