PK 55 is a beach spot exactly 55 km north of Nouakchott, Mauritania's capital, then 10 minutes down a dirt track. The beach extends for 750 km along the entire Mauritanian coastline — endless space.
Water generally quite flat, occasionally choppy. Occasional jellyfish swarms in June-July. Clean beach but spiky plants washed up frequently. Very remote — nothing around, zero nightlife. Pure adventure kite in the Saharan setting.
Open all year round
Intermediate
Generally flat, occasionally choppy. Sandy bottom. Atlantic ocean beach. Jellyfish possible June-July. Water 20-25°C. Shorty most of the year.
Wind most afternoons 14-20 knots, February to August and again mid-October to end of November. NW to E depending on direction — always a spot to ride somewhere along the coast. Shorty enough for most of the year.
