The lowest point of Africa and one of the hottest in the world, Lac Assal has an attraction all of its own.
On the way from Djibouti ville, you pass the Bay of Ghoubbet, a very deep lagune with a small opening to the sea, surrounded by myths about large monsters living in it. Indeed, the name of the bay in Afar, the local language, means Gulf of the Demons. Shortly after leaving the bay behind, you start a descent that will take you right to the shore of Lac Assal. As you go down, you can feel the temperature outside soar; perhaps more impressively are the crash barriers literally eaten away by the salty earth. When you finally step into this landscape, the forbidding white lake reflects on your eyes and makes you grab your sunglasses.
