Oumlaabour

Dakhla, Western Sahara
🏝️Remote

Oumlaabour is a consistent left point break on the Western Sahara coast, picking up swell that misses more sheltered spots. The wave offers long, workable walls in a stark desert environment. When the wind cooperates, it's one of the most consistent options in the Dakhla area.
