Tifnite





Drive south on the coast road from Inezgane toward Tiznit and you pass the Souss-Massa national park a nature reserve with rare species such as Bald Ibis and Flamingos. Just past Sidi Bibi turn off right to Tifrite, the perfect fishing village.
The road ends at the sea where there is a car park of sorts. When we first went there was a cafe there but it has disappeared without trace so take a picnic. The village is not at the end of the road but about half a mile away along the dunes or the beach depennding on the tide. There is a shop which will sell you cold drinks and, tide depending, fishing off the rocks.The fishing boats pull up onto the beach but fish every day and if you arrive at the right time you can buy fish off the boat.; otherwise the boxes of fish are placed on ice and taken away to the road by donkey.
