With your rental car in Laayoune, several excursions are within reach:
Foum el Oued — just 28 km west, this Atlantic beach is the nearest coastal destination to Laayoune. Ideal for a half-day trip, with powerful waves for experienced surfers.
Dakhla — about 500 km south (6 hours drive), the world kitesurfing capital. The route follows the Atlantic coast with endless desert landscapes. Fill up before leaving Laayoune — petrol stations become scarcer after the city.
Driving in and around Laayoune has some specific considerations:
Long distances — fill up at Laayoune before heading south; petrol stations are scarce on the road to Dakhla.
