Legzira beach, Morocco. Sidi Ifni beach and surfing

Legzira beach near Sidi Ifni is a little city located in southwest Morocco, on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. At the heart of what was the Spanish Sahara, Ifni was once a base for slave-trading operations and later a large exporter of fish to the Spanish mainland. The place is full of visiting surfers, seeking out excellent Atlantic waves on nearby beaches.

Legzira is one of the most beautiful beaches in Morocco. The site is still special with a rock island beyond the waves and photogenic arches standing farther down the beach. One of the iconic earth and stone arches fell down in 2016 and the remaining ones are unstable. The cliffs were formed over thousands of years by erosion. Locals say there were 5 in total, including the collapsed one.
