The experience
About this trip
Legzira lies well south of Agadir and Taghazout lies north of it, so we collect you at half past six and the first hour is spent coming down the coast. The two days from there are the same.
Day one reaches the beach around eleven, with lunch above the water and the afternoon free until half past three. Then on past Guelmim to a bivouac in the sand for sunset, dinner and the night.
Day two starts at half past eight with prehistoric carvings cut into the rock, then the oasis at Tighmert and lunch, and the long drive back up to the village. Bring swimwear and something warm for the night.
