Nouadhibou (formerly Port Etienne), is situated about 15 km north of Cap Blanc, the southern tip of the Presqu'île de Cap Blanc (Cap Blanc Peninsula). Presqu'île de Cap Blanc is extending about 45 km south. Cap Blanc shows as a white plateau, the end of which falls vertically to the sea. The cape is composed of friable rock, which is gradually being eroded by the sea, consequently its shape is subject to alteration.
This is the biggest in the world and can be up to 3km long. Its a very important thing to se if you're comming to this parts of Mauritania.There are 3 trains a day, but only the one at 14.30 takes passengers (maybe if you have to transport your car as well, you can take another train).
Another view of the coast. Now only water and a fishermen little boat. Its possible that his under water catching some things i don't know the name in english sorry... very informative this tip right? It lives for the image of course...hehe ;o)
Cabano coast is maybe around 2 kilometres from Nouadhibou you have this coast. Is a place where uncommon rock contruction meets the sea.Cabano is also the place of mistery meetings here in Nouashibou for white morrs.
Nouadhibou its the first city after the border with Moroccan occupied Western Sahara. From here arrive by land hundreds of stolen vehicles, man slavering and all kind of goods, even vegetables can be passed illegally at the border.There is very little to see inside the city of more around 60,000 people, but the nature here is of splendid beauty. Nouadhibou like many desert cities, is immodestly large.
Cansado Bay, 10km from the city centre is a must in the city. Due to the lack of interesting things to see here in Nouadhibou you have to come to this beach and enjoy the old boats. In terms of environment is obviously not correct but since the boats are already there just enjoy the dead and lost boats. This is odd and amazing.
