Frederic Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 This road / dirt track goes quite deep inside: https://goo.gl/maps/XamBgrHbs471euzT8 Ā Iāve put the pin towards the end, as Iāve used it a while back to as starting point for a drive.Ā Ā The road itself can be done with any vehicle, and on both sides youāll find plenty of nice spots. Just make sure NOT to approach it from the Sweihan side (as Google maps would suggest, as this is not possible), Better take E75 followed by E22. (From Khatam side). 2 "Go as far as you can see; once you get there, you'll be able to see further." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niki Posted October 24, 2021 Report Share Posted October 24, 2021 Not the desert but another island option is Dalma island - if it wasnāt for lock down, we had planned to visit with the video below the inspiration.Ā Ā 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilya Posted December 6, 2021 Report Share Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) For those who love remote locations and astrophoto -Ā 23.412565Ā° 54.390732Ā° is the entrance point, and then you can drive 5-15Ā km inside the desert to the east. Unlimited places for camping inside the dunes from the left side. Deflating is a must, but the track is easy and safe Edited December 6, 2021 by Ilya 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is aĀ gate next to the comms tower, but it is completely blocked. We drove along the fenceĀ but couldn't findĀ a way in. Had to camp on the Shipwreck beach which is a short drive from there.
