MIRHLEFT
Beach off the beaten track

Mirhleft, Morocco


Mirhleft, Morocco


Mirhleft is a rather famous desination in southern Morocco, due to its setting and attractive nearby beaches. Also it is considered quite an amusing place to survive summer heat.
The beach is unusually clean — an important factor since the authorities has nearly stopped cleaning the beach of Agadir, further north. Waves and currents can be strong, but what swimmers loose, surfers gain.
Mirhleft is a nice litte village, but there are some OK attractions here too. There is a ruined French fort to explore (with carefulness) and an important Muslim tomb 3 km out of Mirhleft.
