Sunlight flattens against the Atlantic as quad bikes kick up a rooster-tail of sand and pebbles, the ocean visible beyond the ridge of a golden dune. The day begins with a short briefing, and then you’re moving — tires biting into desert tracks, skirting palm oases and crossing sun-baked Berber fields where the scent of arid brush rides the wind.

History
The region is traditionally inhabited by Shilha (Amazigh/Berber) communities; coastal trails were long-used links between mountain settlements and Atlantic fishing spots.
Conservation
Stay on designated tracks and avoid trampling dune vegetation; coastal dunes are sensitive — operators typically limit group sizes to reduce erosion and disturbance.
