Dakhla Airport lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 23.72° N, 15.93° W, on Africa/El_Aaiun time (UTC+1).
Dakhla Airport has 1 runway. The longest, 03/21, measures 9,842 ft by 148 ft, which puts the field in the widebody capable category: twin-aisle aircraft can use it, and narrowbodies have length to spare. The surface is asphalt. It is lit for night operations.
Runway 03/21 is aligned roughly north/south, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. Every runway here shares that north/south alignment, so a strong crosswind means a crosswind landing rather than a switch to another strip.
