The engine growls, sand sprays, and the Atlantic wind tugs at your jacket as the buggy peels away from the town gate of Essaouira. In an hour you’ll trade whitewashed alleys for an open coastal stage where dunes rise and fall like slow-moving waves, and a guide reads the terrain while you focus on the line ahead.
