Hydrate before and during
The desert is dry and cooling nights can be deceptive—drink water before pickup and carry a refillable bottle for the camp.
Secure loose items
Bring a small zippered bag or dry pouch—phones, sunglasses and hats can fly off during dune bashing.
Wear closed shoes
Sand gets hot and coarse; closed hiking or trail shoes offer better grip for sandboarding and walking on dunes.
Follow driver and camp rules
Drivers are trained for off-road conditions—stay seated during dune runs and avoid getting on dunes outside marked areas to protect habitat.
Reusable water bottle
Staying hydrated is critical in the desert heat and for an evening extending several hours.
