The journey, which takes approximately two and a half hours, winds through landscapes of argan trees and red-earth hills before revealing the Atlantic in all its splendour. Once settled into your riad — chosen for its authenticity and high standard of service — you will have the afternoon free to wander the narrow streets of the medina: art galleries, artisan workshops, spice shops and the lively harbour square await you. As evening falls, we recommend the iconic camel ride along the wide sandy beach, with the sun sinking below the horizon, before enjoying dinner on the terrace under a starry sky.
