Natural places in Morocco

Rock arch at Legzira Beach

One of Morocco’s most picturesque slices of sand, Legzira Beach lies 10 kilometers north of the blue-and-white old Spanish Sahara port of Sidi Ifni.

Unfettered by tourism development, the beachfront here exudes a lonesome appeal, enhanced by its dramatic, wave-lapped rock formation arcing over the sand.

Sunset is the time to be here for the best photographs, when the jagged rocks glow orange in the fading light.

There are few facilities here, though a handful of seafood restaurants dish up meals and refreshments. Pack a picnic and head here for the afternoon from either Sidi Ifni or from Mirleft, 23 kilometers to the north.

Akchour Waterfalls

Akchour is a small village in Morocco, 30 km from Chefchaouen on the road to Oued Laou. It is a site known for its mountains, its rivers and especially its waterfalls, each more magnificent than the others. Tourists have the choice between two routes. The path on the right is a one-hour route that leads to a large cliff. The left path is a two-hour course which takes us to a large waterfall.
