  • Lovely bit of coastline that we had the pleasure of being able to travel through in our journey through Mauritania. It is generally unspoilt in that it hasn't been commercialised, so you it's a bit like stepping back in time. Unfortunately some area are spoiled by litter and travelling by other. Than an SUV could get you into trouble on some of what are called 'roads'.
  • yes,very nice park. havent been there dough,but would really love to see it.
