Experience It! Sahara Desert Covering over 3 million square miles of northern Africa, the Sahara is said to encompass a staggering 10% of the African continent. It is often referred to as the world's largest desert, but it is actually the largest “hot” desert, losing its overall status to Antarctica. Scientists believe that the Sahara Desert has been inhabited since 6000 B.C. The Egyptians, Phoenicians, Greeks and Europeans are just some of its former residents. Today, the population is around 4 million and consists mainly of nomads who move from place to place as a result of the harsh conditions. Imagine daily life with an average temperature of 86°F. Temperatures can regularly exceed 122°F during the hottest months of the year. Over time, the wind, heat and dry weather has created a tapestry of stunning landscapes that include sand dunes, sand seas (called ergs), barren stone plateaus, gravel plains and salt flats.
