With December holidays fast approaching, we are dreaming of a windsurf holiday to Dakhla. With its startling desert scenery, a flat-water lagoon that stretches for miles, reliable wind and sunny weather, there are many reasons why we think festive season is best spent with Moroccan sand between our toes. Here are just 6 reasons why you too should be dreaming of Dakhla:
