Mauritania -> Western Sahara Spring 08
 

This'll be my first time this far west (living in Tunis currently...), and I've heard that weather, particularly sand storms, makes this stretch difficult if not inadvisable during late March/early April. Anyone have any ideas?

Also, anything worth seeing in S. Mauritania? I can find no information whatsoever, particularly Tintane or Kiffa. Thanks in advance...
