The Guelta d'Archei is one of the most famous

Mediterranean shores. The small group of surviving crocodiles in the Guelta d'Archei represents one of the last colonies known in the Sahara today; the Tagant Plateau colony in Mauritania has likely been extinct since 1996.[1]

Travel to the Guelta d'Archei is very difficult, as it is not serviced by paved roads. It is an approximately four-day's 4×4 drive from the Chadian capital of N'Djamena.[2]
