Les Sables Blancs

Also known as: Sables Blancs · White Sands · les sables blanc de Tadjoura

Les Sables Blancs is the white-sand beach near Tadjoura, on the northern shore of the gulf. The reef begins close to the beach, so it can be reached from shore. Liveaboards also dive here, for example at night. A drop-off with abundant marine life runs along the coast. The fuselage of a small aircraft, without wings or tail, lies at the site. Reef fish, soft corals and sea anemones are common.
