This magical camp is a haven of Bedouin-style tents, breezy Arabian-style seating areas and a swimming pool. This is one camp where you are genuinely in the heart of the dunes, and the challenge of getting here, 19km over a sand ridge from Al Raha camp on the valley floor, is part of the excitement.
A retired Bedford truck brought the resident dhow (traditional boat) here in three pieces: now reassembled as a bar, it makes a fun place to watch those other ships of the desert lope by. Dinner in the carpeted open-air majlis (reception area) is a simple buffet jollied along with the hypnotic rhythms of Bedouin drummers and dancers.
