Travel along the western coast of Morocco to the sleepy village of Sidi Kaouki. Sandy, white beaches line the coast and, with intense waves crashing onto the shore, it is an up-and-coming surfer’s paradise and Morocco’s little secret. It serves as an escape for travelers coming from the hustle and bustle of the city of Essaouira, just 17 miles (27 km) away.
Widely regarded as Morocco’s best surf village, this small town is famously known for its watersports. Your days can be spent watching the surfers, as they test their abilities, battling the fierce waves of the North Atlantic Ocean. But the waves aren’t the only thing you can ride here. Quad biking along the beach or simply taking it slow with camel riding is available. Certainly, a great vacation relies on comfortable lodging.
