The trip

Rock, sand and the evening light.

North of Taghazout the coast changes. The cliffs give way to sand, and behind the beach the wind has carved soft sandstone into narrow canyons, arches and walls that look combed by the sea.

This is an evening trip, timed for the light. You walk through the canyons while the rock still glows gold, climb onto the dunes as the sun drops towards the Atlantic, and stay on after dark.

When the light goes, the fire goes on. Tea, a circle of lanterns in the sand and the sound of the ocean somewhere below. Then we drive you back to your door.

You do not need to surf, and you do not need to be fit. It is a slow evening, and a good one for a day when your arms need a rest.

    We collect you at your accommodation. Bring a warm layer: the evening gets cool on the coast.

  2. Coast stop near Aghroud

    A first look at the Atlantic from the cliffs on the way north.

  3. Sandstone canyons and dunes

    A slow walk through narrow passages of golden rock, wave-like patterns in the stone and soft sand underfoot.

  4. Sunset over the Atlantic

    Up on the dunes as the light fades over the ocean.

  5. Moroccan tea and campfire

    Tea around the fire, lanterns in the sand, and music. A quiet hour under the stars.

Questions

Before you go

Is Timlaline a half-day or an evening trip?

An evening trip. We pick you up in the late afternoon, walk the canyons and dunes, watch the sunset and stay for tea by the fire, then drive you back in the evening.

Do I need to be fit?

No. The walking is easy and on sand. There are a few short climbs in the dunes, and you can go at your own pace.

What should I wear?

Comfortable clothes and shoes you can walk in on sand, plus a warm layer. The coast gets cool quickly once the sun has gone.

Where do you pick us up?

From your accommodation in Taghazout or Tamraght. If you are staying somewhere else nearby, ask us on WhatsApp.

Is it suitable for children?

Families are welcome. Tell us the ages of the children when you book so we can plan the evening.

What happens if the weather is bad?

If strong wind or rain would spoil the evening, we move the trip to another day.

Can I combine it with surf lessons?

Yes. The excursion starts after the usual lesson times, so a morning in the water and an evening at Timlaline fit in the same day.
