Souss-Massa National Park

The park spans 338 square kilometers along the Atlantic coast, featuring sand dunes, wetlands, grasslands, and rocky cliffs between Agadir and Sidi Ifni.

Established in 1991, the national park gained international recognition as a Ramsar Wetland site in 2005 for its conservation of rare bird species.

Local communities within and around the park maintain traditional agricultural practices while supporting wildlife preservation through sustainable land management.

Visitors can explore marked trails at Oued Souss and access educational resources at the information center located near Oued Massa.

The protected area houses three of Morocco's four northern bald ibis colonies, representing 95 percent of the global population of this endangered bird.
