About Mauritania

Mauritania is basically a country composed of desert and the sea. Most of the attractions that you can find here are built upon those two.

The Adrar desert is everything you could imagine what Sahara is. If you have been to this part of the country, you can say that you have seen what’s out there in Sahara – characterized by endless dunes, rocky desert, and some tabular mountain in between. Some of the dunes end up in the sea. So after you explore the dry parts, you can get wet and wild by dipping into the ocean. In the middle of the two is a semi arid region where you can enjoy luscious sights and sceneries. This is the part where the Senegal River valley is located.
