Drive south from Agadir to the soaring stone arches of Legzira, watch the sun settle over the El Borj dunes, and spend a night in a Berber tent under clear desert stars. This two‑day loop blends coastal views, prehistoric rock art and an oasis visit with hands‑on cultural moments.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The bus rolls away from Agadir as Atlantic spray gives way to open scrub and the low ridges of the Anti-Atlas. By late afternoon you stand on a red-stone arc at Legzira, wind pushing the tide back and sand daring you to walk the shore; sandstone cliffs curve like folded pages of geological history.

Wildlife
History
The coast and lower Anti‑Atlas have been inhabited for millennia by Amazigh (Berber) communities; nearby rock engravings date to prehistoric North African cultures and reflect long seasonal movement across the landscape.
Conservation
Legzira’s sandstone arches are vulnerable to coastal erosion and human impact; visitors should avoid climbing rock formations, use existing trails, and pack out all trash to reduce pressure on fragile habitats.

Hydrate before you go
Carry at least 2–3 liters per person for daytime sections — water is limited on the dunes and in small villages.
Layer for big temperature swings
Daytime can be hot and windy; nights in the tent can drop below 10°C, so pack a warm midlayer and an insulated jacket.
Wear grippy footwear
Sturdy hiking shoes or trail runners with good tread make coastal rock and loose sand easier and safer to navigate.
Bring local currency and small notes
Souks and remote vendors operate cash‑first; small bills and coins speed transactions for food, tips and crafts.
