Sidi Kaouki Beach, Atlantic beach in Sidi Kaouki, Morocco.
The 5-kilometer sandy beach features clear turquoise waters and stretches along the Atlantic coast with consistent waves and wide open spaces.
The small fishing community near Essaouira evolved into a coastal destination during the 1990s when international surfers discovered its exceptional wave patterns.
Local fishermen maintain their traditional practices alongside modern surf culture, with markets offering fresh catches and Moroccan tea ceremonies on the shore.
The beach offers optimal surfing conditions from May through October, with water temperatures reaching 23°C and equipment rentals available from multiple providers.
Wild horses regularly traverse the shoreline at sunrise and sunset, creating natural silhouettes against the golden Moroccan sun.
