Five days away from Marrakech, on the stretch of Atlantic coast where Morocco learns to surf. Your own driver takes you down through the argan forests to Taghazout, where you stay three nights on the beach and take your lessons with a certified instructor \u2014 surfboard and wetsuit included, and no experience needed. Day three runs up the coast to Imsouane for its long, famous waves and a seafood lunch over the fishing harbour. Day four crosses to Essaouira: the UNESCO medina, the blue boats of the fishing port, the Skala ramparts, and a night in a boutique hotel or a traditional riad. On day five the same driver brings you back to Marrakech through the argan country. Breakfast is included every morning; lunches and dinners you pick yourself, which on this coast is half the pleasure.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
