Southern Morocco surf travel guide

The draw of the desert is strong and there are many miles of deserted coastline to inspect if the cross-onshores ever relent. Highlights include Tifnite that holds several interesting, small swell beachbreaks and Sidi Ifni where the boulder right point is supplemented by that rarest of things in Maroc - a lefthander or 3! Wave quality decreases as the coast bends towards Tarfaya and the Canary Islands shadow some swell, but there's nothing like a van trip through this vast stony landscape.
