Guided Tour of Lake Assal Escape

Lac Assal lies 150 meters (492 feet) below sea level, making it the lowest point in Africa and one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth. This aquatic wilderness, encircled by dormant volcanoes and vast black lava fields, offers a landscape like no other stark, dramatic, and mesmerizing. This one-day trip takes you along a well-paved road heading west from Djibouti City. Along the way, you’ll pass Lac Goubet, a deep seawater loch ominously known as “the Pit of Demons.” From there, the journey continues through an apocalyptic volcanic corridor, where rugged rock formations mark the divide between the two lakes. At Lac Assal, marvel at the brilliant turquoise waters contrasting with the blinding white salt flats, stroll along the crystalline shore, and capture unforgettable photos of this surreal landscape.
