From Egypt and Libya there are many connected Sand Seas, the
Great Sand Sea that crosses borders, with its area of 72,000 sq km and its highest dunes of 100 m, is the largest in the world. The Sand Seas are characterized by long lines of dunes formed by the winds. The alignment known as
Abu Mhara Dune is long 140 km. This map gives a rough idea of the various Sand Seas.
