Dune bashing is something you simply can’t miss when you are in Dubai; the thrill and the excitement you will get when you are taking part in an adventurous activity is something you won’t ever forget.
The experience and the feeling you will get from both the activities are also different due to the type of sand, how smooth the ride will be, etc.
In this article we are going to see what the features of red dune bashing and white dune bashing are.
White Sand Dune Bashing
White sand dune bashing is basically the dune bashing in the white desert. There are several features that distinguish these two types of dune bashing:
- Locations: The main feature of dune bashing is its location; white desert safari is usually seen in white deserts in places like Al Qudra Desert and in different parts of Sharjah.
- Characteristics: The texture or nature of the sand that you find in the white desert is more fine particles and softer in nature. This is the reason you will get a smoother ride for dune bashing.
- Visuals: In the white desert, the views you will be getting are more like golden hues and lighter tones, which will result in your relaxing ride and give a classic desert look.
- Ideal For: The white sand dune bashing is ideal for people who are not much into adventure and more interested in relaxing yet enjoyable moments. So if you are coming with a family of kids and elderly people, then this is the best option for you.
Red Sand Dune Bashing
Red sand dune bashing the dune bashing in red deserts. Here also there are several features that are exclusive for red deserts, which include:
- Location: The place where the red deserts are mostly seen is in the area of Al Badayer Desert (Big Red) and Lahbab Desert.
- Characteristics: Red dunes are mostly taller and have steeper dunes with a reddish hue. The reason for sand in red color is because of the presence of the iron oxides.
- Visual: The vibrant red color enhances the visual appeal, making it the favorite spot for photography, especially during the golden hours, i.e., during sunrise and sunset, when you get to witness the sky and the land covered in red shades.
- Ideal For: Red dune bashing is recommended for people who like more adventurous and thrilling experiences. The steeper dune will make it memorable.
