Moroccan Beaches

This beach just below the cliffs of our hotel was at least 1 mile long with only 2/3 people on it. Big waves, no seaweed and loads and loads of pure white sand. What more could you wish for. Check out the hotel at one off places a website we use for all our holidays. If you don't want to stay in the usual hotel or villa try this for something a little "one off".

Kasbah Tabelkoukt south of Mirleft on the west coast of Morocco. Having climbed into the Atlas mountains for a couple of days we headed off to our final destination on the coast. After the noise and shopping of Marrakech and the beauty and snow of the mountians we didn't think it could get much better than that. After a 6 hour drive from Imlil to Mirleft we were just hoping for a good nights sleep and comfortable couple of days before we flew home to the UK from Agadir.

We arrived at the Kasbah Tabelkoukt at 11pm having descended from the refuge in the Atlas at 6am. We were warmly greeted by the staff and informed that the fire in our room had been lit and dinner was awaiting us. What a fantastic relief from the junk we had eaten at the side of the road service stations consisting mainly of Haribo. We had an impromptu 3 course meal of fish and then a lamb tagine, the standard of which topped everything we had come to expect. The room was huge with its own fireplace which glowed with the warmth from the recently lit fire.
We could only glimpse the swimming pool in the dark but looked forward to slaving to the sun in the morning. Above is a sample of the views available from the edge overlooking the Atlantic Ocean below.
