Sandboarding in the Mogote Dunes in Mexico

This is a sandboarding tour in the dune area known as El Mogote, near La Paz. The listing says you will get to know this natural dune area and enjoy it by sliding down on custom sandboards made for each type of dune, or on sand sleds, in a way that is meant to be safe and fun. The activity is listed at about 180 minutes.

The listing gives no stop-by-stop itinerary, so the experience centers on the dunes themselves: learning about the area, choosing between a sandboard and a sled, and sliding down. Different boards are matched to different kinds of dune, and sandboard wax is included so the boards glide.

Safety glasses are part of the kit, which is practical when sand is moving around you. The refreshments on offer include bottled water, beer and other drinks. Alcoholic beverages are only for people over 18 years old.

This outing suits travelers who want an active, playful activity rather than a sightseeing tour. It is listed as suitable for all physical fitness levels, but it is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, for pregnant travelers or for people with poor cardiovascular health. Infants are required to sit on an adult's lap.

The price includes sandboarding, the sand sled, sandboard wax, safety glasses, bottled water, refreshments, beer, and pickup at the operator's meeting point. The listing does not give the address of that meeting point, so confirm it with the operator when you book.
