pebbles exposed to strong winds and storms that set salt combined sand in
motion like sea waves.

Weather: Seasons
Riding camels is another great experience in the desert and can be rented to ride through the desert. Do not even think about to travel in summer, you might be boiling, but if you like being hot, it’s your choice. But these things will be great in October to April when it is not too sunny to visit.
Desert can be very amazing experience but it is still tough and unpredictable especially the beautiful salt lakes and swamps so I recommend you to travel with a local guide totally familiar with area.
