The wind arrives first, shaping ridgelines of soft gold that push and fold like a slow wave. On the dunes outside Agadir, travelers swap the city’s Atlantic air for a desert rhythm: camels step with the patience of old maps while sandboards flash down clean slopes. Morning tours greet cooler light; sunset runs set the dunes alight as shadows lengthen and the sand cools beneath feet.

Hydrate before and during the trip
Carry at least 1–2 liters of water per person; guides may supply additional water but start hydrated to avoid fatigue on the dunes.

Choose footwear for sand
Closed-toe shoes with good grip and lightweight socks keep sand out and protect toes during climbs and board runs.
Time your session
Book morning for cooler temperatures and softer light, or sunset for dramatic colors and firmer sand for faster runs.
Closed-toe trail shoes
Protects feet from hot sand, rocks, and abrasion during climbs and dismounts.
Sun protection kit (sunscreen, hat, sunglasses)
Intense sun and reflected heat off sand make full sun protection essential.
