The sun tilts low over Agadir and the river takes on a copper edge as camels rise and fall in a slow, deliberate rhythm. You mount a well-trained dromedary at a small ranch, the animal’s gait rocking like a slow boat; ahead, the Souss river plain widens into reed beds where flamingos and waders probe shallow water.
