A low, warm wind pushes along the coast as the air opens onto sheets of gold—Timlaline’s dunes rise like waves frozen mid-crest, and a narrow canyon nearby slices the skyline into sharp photographic frames. You meet your guide in Agadir or Taghazout and slide away from the surf into desert terrain: an air-conditioned transfer, a short walk to the dunes, a quick technique briefing, then the satisfying thud of a board biting sand.

Sun protection is non-negotiable
High UV and reflected sand intensify exposure—use SPF 30+, a wide-brim hat for transfers, and lip balm.
Footwear for loose sand
Wear closed-toe shoes with good traction—sandals let grit in and make climbs uncomfortable.
