If snowboarding is exhilarating, imagine doing it on towering sand dunes under the blazing African sun. Namibia’s Swakopmund and Sossusvlei regions are home to some of the tallest dunes in the world, and sandboarding down them is pure adrenaline-fueled fun. Whether you choose to stand or ride face-first on a wooden board, the rush of sliding down these golden slopes is unlike any other sport. If desert adventures call to you but Namibia feels too remote, try sandboarding in the dunes of Peru’s Huacachina oasis or the Dubai Desert.
