Late afternoon in Agadir flattens the light and sharpens the colors: camels file along soft coastal dunes, their slow gait keeping time with the surf beyond. Riders sit a little higher than the shoreline, passing Aghroud’s low forest and a stretch where the Souss River widens into marshy flats; at sunset, flamingos pick at the shallows and the sky burns apricot behind the King’s Palace silhouette.
