9Explore the Stunning White Sand Dunes of Zahak
Socotra’s deserts are just as mesmerizing as its forests. Zahak Sand Dunes, located on the northern coast, are vast stretches of white, powdery sand that rise and fall like waves. These dunes reach heights of up to 100 meters and offer breathtaking views of the Arabian Sea. A trek through these dunes is a surreal experience, especially at sunrise or sunset when the light casts long shadows across the sand. Many travelers also enjoy sandboarding or simply rolling down the dunes. The contrast between the bright white dunes and the turquoise sea makes this one of the most unique landscapes on the island.
