Something not right?

Description

The closest Beach to Djbouti City. It’s only around 20 km from the City Center. The last 7 km are on a Dirt Track. The Entry Point is not too easy to find as they built a new Port and a Chinese Military Base where Mapsme wants to navigate you. So maybe ask around in the Beginning. Once you’re on the Track it’s relatively easy, only the last Kilometer is rough and rocky, no Chance without 4x4 and high Clearance!
Camping directly on the sandy Beach. There are a few Huts and small Restaurants so we asked one of the Owners if we could stay. Negotiated 750 DJF (3,40 Euro) pppn. Very quite, nice Beach, nice Water and Swimming. The Beach only gets a bit crowded on Friday and Saturday (Djibouti’s Day Off) when some Families come over from the City. So on these two Days Camping Price doubles (1.500 DJF pppn). On the other Days we were alone with some Fishermen. Cellphone Coverage and Edge Mobile Data with Djbouti Telecom, so it’s a perfect and cheap Place to relax while you are waiting for your Car Shipping.
