The experience

About this tour

If you've never tried sandboarding, this is a great way to do it. The dunes at Timlalin are high enough to get a proper run, the sand is soft, and no experience is needed — your guide shows you the basics and you improve quickly.

The trip follows the same coastal route as the sand dunes tour: a stop at the rainbow-painted houses of Aghroud, a guided walk through limestone canyons, then the dunes themselves. This version is priced lower and focused on travellers whose main interest is the sandboarding itself.

All equipment is provided. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included from Agadir, Taghazout and Tamraght.
