Mauritania

Mauritania is the country of infinite, silent spaces, of desert expanses interrupted from time to time by miraculous palm groves, sparse nomad camps, immense dunes and sudden rocky outcrops that rise up in steep canyons with breathtaking views. It is a land imbued with charm and history, suspended between the Sahara and the Ocean, between ancient caravan cities, guardians of precious riches, and majestic dunes that plunge directly into the waves of the Atlantic, forming a unique coastline.

Mauritania is the meeting point of Arab culture and black Africa, but it belongs to neither. Its history is concentrated in the ancient caravan cities at the gates of the desert, which still today, engaged in a strenuous struggle to save themselves from the advancing sands, jealously guard the essence of the nomadic Mauritanian culture. This is a very special culture, not found in any other country on the continent.

As for natural beauty, the country boasts spectacular landscapes, from the sand dunes perfectly sculpted by the wind, to the surreal canyons interspersed with occasional lush palm groves in the ouadi and guelte. From the desert that plunges into the ocean, to a wild coastline dotted with small islands close to the coast that offer shelter to an impressive variety of migratory birds.
