This proposed itinerary, featuring a camp in Durgaam and visits to Durghella, or camp in Dissei and visit Dissei village and Madote, it is just a sample and it is not fixed. It’s adaptable and may change based on weather conditions and access permissions to the islands.

If your program expects a cruise to the Dahlak islands, you will be requested at your arrival to sign a “Release of Liability” form. For a better and transparent information, you will find attached a facsimile of the declaration. In no case traveller will be admitted to the Dahlak trips without signing this declaration
Please note that the Dahlak cruise requires adaptability. Accommodation will be in igloo tents on the islands (igloo tents mt 2.10 x 1.25x 0,98H or 2.10 x 1.85x 1,04H, equipped with 5cm mattresses, pillow, sheets and pillowcases, chairs and tables are made available by the organization); Fresh water is scarce, so daily showers are not feasible, and there are no toilet facilities. Meals, prepared by an accompanying cook, will feature fresh fish, traditional Danakil bread, fruit will be available only on the first days, but there will be tea and coffee, pasta and rice, biscuits and jam for the breakfast, in addition to, for those who prefer, typical breakfast of the coast: the “foul” based on fava beans, or an omelette with the addition of green hot pepper! Are available local drinks as bottled water, soft drinks and beer (4 drinks per day per person are included, extra will be paid to the crew). Do not miss a drop of areki (the local anise), to be enjoyed in the evening, maybe on the beach, around the fire chatting with travel buddies or admiring an incredible sky with (see to believe!) millions of stars, a breathtaking view in front of which everyone remains amazed and speechless and, if we are lucky, a bright sea for the phosphorescent plankton.
Every saturday morning from Massawa.
