Hydrate before you go
Bring at least 1–2 liters of water per person; the sun and reflective sand dehydrate faster than you expect.
Footwear for sand
Use sturdy closed-toe shoes or gaiters to keep sand out and protect ankles on uneven dune ridges.
Sun protection
Apply high-SPF sunscreen and wear a wide-brim hat and UV sunglasses — sunset reduces heat but not UV intensity.
Follow guide vehicle rules
Stay clear of dune-bashing tracks and only board sand vehicles or camels with the guide to avoid fragile areas and safety risks.
Closed-toe trail shoes
Protects feet from hot sand and provides traction on shifting dunes.
High SPF sunscreen and lip balm
Prevents sunburn from direct and reflected UV on the sand.
Windbreaker or light jacket
Coastal winds can be cool near sunset; a lightweight layer helps retain warmth.
