I just got back from a week in Mirleft, south of Agadir, and I felt like I’d stumbled upon an "off-the-beaten-path" Morocco: a raw Atlantic coastline, cliffs, endless beaches... and that slow pace that helps you unplug within 24 hours.
We had a house with a pool (the perfect combo when the wind picks up and the ocean cools the air), and then we alternated between:
- Wandering the souk and alleyways (local vibe, regional products, and the big Monday souk if you can make it)
- Surf sessions / scouting spots (depending on the swell and wind, it makes all the difference)
- Wild beaches + viewpoints where you can settle far from the crowds
- Legzira at sunset: the orange rock, the deep roar of the Atlantic, and that natural arch that seems to hold "by magic"
- A little detour to Tiznit (45 min away): medina, silver craftsmanship, and an unexpected blue spring in the heart of the city
- The mandatory "reset": hammam + massage after salt, sand, and road trips
I especially noted a bunch of details to avoid hassles: when to go (wind/weather), how to get around (a car is pretty much essential), what to watch out for on the road at night, and even super practical tips for summer accommodations.
If you want the full article with all the practical info + must-sees (and our tips to avoid mishaps), it’s here:

Hi everyone! 😊
I wanted to share Marie’s story with you—a traveler who chose cultural immersion as her way of discovering the world.
In our conversation, she tells us about:
✔ Her 6-month volunteer experience in Cambodia
✔ Her solo trip through the Moroccan desert
✔ Her tips for learning local languages and interacting better with residents
✔ Why writing about your travel experiences is a great trick for remembering them
🎧 Listen to her story here, 📺 Watch on YouTube, or 📖 Read the summary here ➡️
💬 Have you ever had an immersive travel experience?
What are your tips for diving into a local culture and making authentic connections?

For our first post-COVID trip outside Europe, we’ve chosen a North African destination: Morocco.
I’ve already visited this country four times, but my partner has never set foot there.
Since we both prefer wide-open spaces over even imperial cities, our itinerary will focus on nature and villages.
Starting point: Casablanca, easily accessible with a direct flight from Lyon.
Our ride: a Dacia Logan, perfect for navigating roads turned into Swiss cheese by corruption and the weather.
Stops: Demnate, Aït Ben Haddou, the Dadès Gorges, N'Kob, Zagora, the Todhra Gorges, the Merzouga dunes, Tinejdad, Agoudal, Lake Bin El Ouidane, the Vallée Heureuse, the Ouzoud waterfalls, and finally El Jadida.
Season: November, when there’s no tourist pressure. Sure, it can be chilly, but what peace and quiet!
You can find the details of our journey beyond the Rif here.
Happy reading!
And if you have any questions or comments, don’t hesitate!
