As the sun tilts low over the eastern dunes, the sand changes from white to warm gold and the air cools—this is when the desert comes alive. You’ll climb into a quad or two-seat buggy, tires biting into ridges that seem to dare you to push harder; the ride alternates between fast, wind-in-your-face stretches and slower, technical climbs over wind-sculpted crests.
