There’s a stretch of Moroccan coast where argan trees lean toward the wind and the sand runs all the way to the Atlantic. Riding here feels simple and real — hooves on soft ground, salt in the air, wide sky above.

Your journey begins in Diabat, setting out through ancient argan groves and open sandy trails. Lunch is shared in true Moroccan style before continuing toward Sidi Kaouki, where you spend the night in a guesthouse or villa with a pool. The next morning brings long beaches, fishing villages, and the wide dunes often called Essaouira’s “Sahara.” There’s time for fast gallops across open sand, for photos and videos, for a picnic by a fisherman’s cabin, and for passing the ruins of Dar Sultan Palace — the “castle in the sand.”

Luggage is arranged for you, meals are prepared locally, and the pace balances riding with rest. If you’re drawn to wind, space, and the feeling of moving freely along the ocean, this coastal ride is waiting!
