This excursion takes us to Sidi Mbark, a small Berber village 35 km south of Essaouira. We walk along the amazing cliff line overlooking beautiful bays below. We visit the cascade beside an old Marabout (residence for the spirit of a Saint or wise man). Discover nature at its best. Here, the convergence of a large sand dune, a small river, and an imposing rock splendidly frames a lovely bay.
The stream brings some water into this very dry region to irrigate local crops. The landscape offers a rich interplay of green, blue and yellow. As it rests on the rocks, the Marabout that gave its name to the village speaks of former times.
The hike now takes us southwards on winding paths through rolling hills. Along the way we encounter shepherds with goats and sheep. The trek provides panoramic views of the coastline and the Atlantic Ocean to the horizon. Walking above the bays we come upon stone houses where fishermen store their gear used to eke out a living from the sea.
On the return hike we stop at a bay for a refreshing swim (optional). Then, surrounded by beautiful scenery, we enjoy a vegetarian picnic at the waterfall of Sidi Mbark.
The walking time of 3.5 to 4 hours can be adjusted to your needs and desires.
As we will be driving through the Argan zone, you have the option to visit an Argan oil cooperative and learn about the production of this beautiful oil - in all the world, a product unique to this area. They will offer us a taste of the lovely things they make with it, too.
Very likely you will see the famous goats in the trees on this tour to the south of Essaouira.

5.00This was the best day out from Essaouira. Naima was a great guide, interesting to talk to and good company. The walk was quite long (14km) and mostly easy but some uphill and rough terrain. I would say it was a challenge for someone who does no exercise (me!) but would be easy for averagely fit people. The beach and scenery were dramatically beautiful, and it felt like we really went off the beaten track. The picnic was amazing! Much better than expected, we had rice, aubergine salad, tomato salad, fresh peanuts, beetroot and lots of bread and fruit. Highly recommend this day out.
See and love the wild coast south of Essaouira

5.00Just beautiful! Hiking allows us to see Morocco wild and authentic, with landscapes that sting in the eyes so beautiful. A nice donkey transported our picnic to a small cove where we had lunch: it was very nice. This is the third outing I have done with Berberlands: I appreciate their quality proposals, off the beaten track. I highly recommend
Very exotic

5.00Very exotic day. My guide from Essaouira picked us up by private taxi and then we joined a Berber guide to walk us through the cliffs. Always taking little care for me being careful that I do not slip into the rocks. Vegetarian picnic on the beach. Meeting with shepherds. 13 kilometers walk and sublime landscapes full of sight. Thank you both for this great experience.

5.00Magnificent and great hiking through sand dunes worthy of the Atlas (albeit smaller), huge and totally deserted beaches, an argan forest to finish by going up the oasis that leads to Sidi M'Bark with our guide Abdou, who knows perfectly the region and has made us discover a wild, out of time nature. Claudia, from Berberlands, was excellent advice and very responsive. To be redone because we never tire of such landscapes.
Beautiful hike with a view over the sea and land

5.00This hike combines wonderful views of the Atlantic Ocean, bizarre rock formations on the coastline with a beautiful inland part to the waterfall. The picnic area in a secluded bay with fresh water spring is perfectly chosen. The snacks brought are very good and are largely transported and eaten in reusable packaging / dishes. Claudia knows the country, people, nature very well, and draws your attention to interesting details that you would otherwise overlook without the whole thing tipping over into excessive instruction. An all-round successful excursion with nice people in fantastic surroundings , I would book a hike with Claudia again at any time and am grateful to Pascale from Darek for bringing me to berlands attention.

5.00We had a wonderful trip. Claudia was interesting, knowledgeable, and humorous. Picture taken at lunchtime when we dashed in and out of waterfront caves.

5.00We (a German and a Spanish woman) learned about Berberlands at Triskala, an excellent restaurant in Essaouira. One WhatsApp was enough, and we already had a guide to ourselves for the next day. Naima led us to the falls with a lot of expertise and empathy. We were so excited about the trip that we signed up for another venture with Berberlands. This time we went to the Oasis in a small group of Frenchmen. It was again an informative, very well organized excursion. Finally, a Berber family served us homemade bread, honey, argan oil, olive oil and the Moroccan Nutella substitute made from nuts. There was also the obligatory mint tea and an insight into their daily work. They made wonderful mats and baskets. Many thanks to Berberlands for two wonderful days.
Superb discovery of the coast and hinterland
