Legzira Beach, Natural beach with red stone arches in Mirleft, Morocco.
Description
Legzira Beach is a stretch of sand along the Atlantic coast featuring red sandstone cliffs that meet the water in dramatic formations. Several restaurants sit near the top, and stairs provide access down to the shore.
History
The main stone arch collapsed into the ocean in 2016 due to natural erosion and was one of several original formations. The shoreline continues to change as waves and weather shape the cliffs.
Culture
Local people come here on weekends to spend time with family and enjoy meals together by the water. The red rock formations create a distinctive setting that matters to the community.
Practical
Access comes down through stairs from the parking area at the clifftop, making it straightforward to reach the shore. The remaining arch is walkable underneath during low tide, so timing your visit with water levels helps.
Did you know?
The remaining arch creates natural frames for photographs when the tide goes out and the water pulls back far enough to walk underneath. This tidal rhythm means the beach looks and feels different depending on when you visit.
