Sidi Ifni


Shhh! Don’t tell your travelling friends, but this formerly Spanish seaside town (Click here), a
camel ride from the Sahara, is every bit as dilapidated, breezy and magical as well-trodden
Essaouira. You can walk to the stone arches at Legzira Plage, or just explore the blue-and-
white backstreets of one of southern Morocco’s most alluring hang-outs. The best time to
appreciate the art-deco relics – more reminiscent of Cuba than Casa – is sunset, when the
Atlantic winds bend the palms and fill the air with a cooling sea mist.
