Sud Bahia Agadir

... the hills, the simple fishing village of Taghazout, Moroccan families playing on the beach, a camel strolling by...and I would think, "Wow, this is my life. Here I am and I'm so lucky. Thank you for all of this." One evening I was driving back from the beach and the full moon was a gigantic yellow ball hanging over the sea; it was one of the most beautiful sites I've ever seen and I ...

... with another girl named Laura, who hosts here.  My room has sea views and I can hear the surf from my room (as well as all the other sounds of Moroccan music and activity, in particular the goats wandering the alleys).    

I'll be here till mid August, then I'll travel the country for a bit.  I have two retreats I'm leading in July and there's still space--come join!

Om Shanti,
Heather

       

Located outside of the medina, but not more than 10 minutes from shops and 25 km from the international Airport, Sofitel Agadir is a gorgeous place to stay while in Morocco. This grand five star hotel holds 273 rooms including family sized suites! The Kasbah style architecture combined with the elegant and exotic décor make this hotel a genuine beauty you'll never want to step outside ...

... visited The UniPrix, a supermarket with fixed prices (rare thing for arabian countries =D ) and then went to get pastry and drink some Nes-nes (milky coffee).

Also I discovered that some souvenirs which I bought earlier on Bazaar, even while i bargained as a devil to get price cut in half, had 10 times lower price in a fixed-price shops! Not Fair! Now I would know that in my future trips!

And then, at ...

... on one slope of which is written I-don't-remember-what in arabic, and at night it is lighten by lamps, looks so astonishing...

In 1960 there was an earthquake in Agadir, which destroyed EVERYTHING, Every building... Lots of dead and refugees... After that all city was built again from zero, but using an anti-earthquaking foundation. From the top of the mountain I could see the big crack in the ground (cause of earthquake).

Then we went ...

... Agadir, at this time of the year, is not exactly JFK. It was about the quietest airport I've seen in a long time, and so orderly, no touts, no mess. Nobody. A few tour buses were waiting for package tourists, and in the distance a few taxis. They must have known about the situation and were asking for quite a high price, 15 Euro to go into town and 30 Euro to my hotel a little north of ...

... to dine on couscous, Agadir abounds with international dining venues. With a varied choice of restaurants, pubs, and nightclubs, you will be able to enjoy an eclectic mix of Lebanese, Italian, Spanish, and even Chinese cuisines. For those that love shopping, you can hunt in the local bazaars for stone and earthenwares, spices, teas, and even leather, gold and silver merchandise. After-dinner activities include casinos, terrace cafes, live music and cabarets.

... up there without any of us noticing. We then had a great time once again bounding down the face of the dune... if only going up was as much fun. Laughing, joking, drinking, chatting we stayed sat around the fire. As time went by more and more people called it a night and drifted off back to their tents. By then end of it there were but a handful of us, slightly drunken soles, left by the fire. Now I'm not entirely sure whose idea it was but ...

Hotel Lynx Room 19 I came here primarily because I was freezing and because my Dad was here in the 60s. Very quiet as it was off season. Had two horrible dinners, splashed out on a room with a TV (a wise decision), but had to watch a horrible MOW that I had worked on years ago.
