Atlas & Ocean WeekendFrom mountain heights to Atlantic waves
The tour at a glance
From mountain heights to Atlantic waves
Same short format as the Atlas Weekend, a completely different picture. We start with the mountains, and not just any: crossing the High Atlas over the Tizi n'Test, a narrow road cut into the rock that climbs above 2,000 metres in a chain of hairpins, with views plunging into the Nfis valley. Down to Taroudant, little Marrakech, enclosed by its ochre mud ramparts, then on to Agadir and its wide bay. The second day belongs to the ocean: the coast road from Agadir to Essaouira alternates cliffs, coves, surf beaches and argan forests, with the Atlantic on your left the whole way. Essaouira is a white and blue city fortified by the wind, with its fishing port, its ramparts and a UNESCO-listed medina. The contrast between the pass on day one and the sea spray on day two is what makes this trip memorable. 100 % tarmac, with 15 to 30 % easy off-road on request. BMW F 800, F 850 or F 900 GS fully equipped, support vehicle carrying the luggage, certified guide. Small group built by matched ability. Pillion welcome.
