For a true sense of emptiness, a travel into the Dankalia region is the best option in Eritrea. Here, you will find endless stretches of barren landscape with very few tiny villages.
Once outside Iddi, we took some time on an empty beach, before continuing through the volcanic part of the desert. Surrounded by volcanoes, this is a large area covered with lava, which makes this part of the Dankalia region even more inhospitable. Soon afterwards, we were stopped at a military police post, and as we didn't have any permits for this region, our passports were confiscated and a soldier with a rifle accompanied us all the way to Assab. There, we eventually got our passports back and learned that there was a new law requiring visitors to have permits for visiting almost any region in the country. Assab is a port, but mainly a military camp for Eritrean soldiers, and we started off the next day for the north. I will describe our trip to the interior of the Dankalia in the Badda story. The Dankalia region, although not as inhospitable as it has been before, didn't disappoint us. The road has already been improved (it used to take many days to travel to Assab), and in the years to come will even be asphalted.
