A Place with No Name

With the swell being so big when we arrived in Morocco our guides decided it would be a good option to head south to a spot where we could enjoy the good size waves.  We drove a bit south to a small old fishing village that has a point break very much like Plum Bay on the island - Dillon was thrilled to say the least.  It is a very quiet spot that the locals hope to keep that way and out of respect for them I will not post the name of the village or beach.  The water was going to be warmer and there would be little to no wind.  It was the perfect little spot to hang out for the day or two.

We enjoyed this little village and surf spot for a couple days.  A good morning session in the water followed by a delicious lunch in the sunshine before an afternoon session.  It felt great to be out in the water again and to feel the sunshine on our faces.  Not many surf pics as we were all enjoying the fun.

    1. Elisa, thank yo so much for stopping by. It was an amazing adventure - one we will remember for a life time. A very special place indeed. I have a feeling your blog will be the one that reminds me to not forget about my yoga (I although I love it - a lovely reminder is always a good thing).
