    Let’s go spray some sand in the big dunes of Sweihan.

    Please note the estimated route is approximately 50 km so it is imperative to have a full tank when arriving at the meeting point.

    This is a long day drive so be sure to have enough food and drinks with you to keep you full and satisfied.

    Also please note there are very limited shops for food and drinks so please come with all of your provisions already packed.

    The last petrol station near the meeting point is the As Saad ADNOC: https://goo.gl/maps/cqmSFdwhDVq

    The Nahel ADNOC is our intended exit: https://goo.gl/maps/GjR7bJiDEqJ2

    The meeting point is approximately 1 to 1.5 hours from Dubai so it is important to plan to travel accordingly.

    See you in the dunes :yesss:

    I’m sure someone will be having a spare radio. But I strongly suggest you to get it for your next drive.

    See you on sands :drive:
