Sabria — Desert Camps & Golden Dunes
Sabria is a small Saharan village south of Douz, wrapped in golden dunes. Away from the crowds, it is one of the best places in Tunisia for an authentic desert camp and a night under the stars.

Things to Do
- Stay in a desert camp — comfortable tents and saharan suites among the dunes.
- Camel trekking — ride out into the erg at sunrise or sunset.
- Stargazing — some of the clearest night skies in Tunisia.
- Bivouac — sleep directly on the sand for total immersion.
How to Get There
Sabria is about 40 km from Douz and is reached by road and track, usually as part of a desert-camp stay or a multi-day Sahara tour.
