More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of the minivan onto a bright limestone lip where cliffs rise like old walls, the canyon air cool against the heat of the coast. The guide points up: sheer faces above 400 meters, green terraces clinging to rock, and a river below that seems to call you forward. First, Eagle (Tazi) Canyon unfolds as a dramatic corridor of stone and shade — gulls wheel, and wind threads through narrow passages that feel both ancient and immediate.
