Winter - Best Season
October – February

Tips before you visit our desert camp
What to wear
Light cotton clothes for the day and a warm layer for desert nights, especially October to February. Comfortable closed shoes or sandals for camel rides.
What to carry
Sunscreen, sunglasses, a scarf for wind and dust, a fully-charged power bank and your camera. Basic essentials are available at the camp store.
Mobile network & connectivity
Signal is limited at Sam Sand Dunes. BSNL and Jio have the best coverage. Treat it as a digital detox - the dunes are far more interesting than your screen.
