With its mild year-round climate and peaceful beaches, Oualidia is an antidote to the heat and dust of Morocco. The shallow waters of the lagoon are ideal for swimming, surfing, wind-surfing or water-skiing. You can hire a kayak or pedalo or simply hail a pleasure boat to take you for a promenade down the lagoon. Among the marshes and wetlands you’ll spot curlews, flamingos, sandpipers, plovers, stilts and many other migrating species.
Keen walkers can follow the clifftop path for miles above deserted grottoes and beaches. Oualidia is also the centre of oyster production in Morocco. You can sample the oysters, as well as locally-caught crab, sea bass and sea bream, at one of the many waterside restaurants.
