Nowadays it39s a laid back surfer39s village more than anything else. We would have been better off basing ourselves here than in Agadir but since this was our first time in Morocco we didn39t know any better.

I found a nice hotel 100 DH and spent today at the beach I must put on more sunscreen next time. I continue to be amazed by the honesty of Moroccans example I man found and returned m http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Tan-Tan/blog-400386.html So all my fears about Ibrahim were false as the man turned out to be unfailingly honest. On Thursday night 17 May he got an excellent Berber tagine prepared. When I told him I didnt want someone who would hassle me for money he seemed offended say it will be like I am his son on our voyage ya right I think. On 18 May Ibrahim wakes me at 555am and we have coffee at the hotel. Then off th http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Tiznit/blog-400134.html Our First Experiences in The Western Sahara In early March we found ourselves headed towards the Western Saharian province of Morocco. We set off from Tiznit in the early afternoon under cloudy skies. It was one of our poorer efforts in hitchhiking in Morocco we waited fully two hours before we found the right ride. A Casablacan couple with a rather large and luxurious suv finally picked http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Tan-Tan/blog-391006.html We left Agadir with a sense of impatience to get out of that tourist town and back into the wilder coastal landscapes not really wild of course since wherever you go in this country you are always surrounded by the curious and friendly Moroccan people who seem able to materialize out of even the most desolatelooking landscapes. Our destinations were the towns of Massa and Sidi R'Bat on the http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Sidi-Ifni/blog-258586.html Our last day in Tafroute we did not rent bikes mostly because I was too scared of the cars and the narrow roads so we walked instead. We headed off down the road toward another town and when we stopped to rest a friendly local pointed out the famous Lion's Head rock. He said that the lion was called the protector of the valley. I'm sure you will be able to make out the lion in the photo. A http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Tan-Tan/blog-251910.html We woke up to find an infestation of flies in our room. They were everywhere and kept on landing on us. We dressed hurriedly and opened the doors and windows so they could escape.We were told that there were buses to Mirleft and with the memory of our grand taxi ordeal too fresh in our Minds we deigned to wait for the bus. Overnight the weather had changed from blistering heat to gale force winds http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Mirleft/blog-248389.html We did a good job of getting up early and on the instructions of the guys working in the hotel we set off down a road to find a few bus companies that were going to Tiznit. None of them were any use and all said we should go to the main bus station which is a considerable distance out of town. We opted against that and wandered over to the grand taxi area to see if we could get join a collective t http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Tiznit/blog-245159.html NOTRE ADRESSE EST 185 BOULVARD MOHAMED V TANTAN http://www.travelblog.org/Africa/Morocco/Guelmim/Tan-Tan/blog-230983.html
