Sandboarding Agadir

Surf the dunes! Sandboarding in Agadir is the desert version of snowboarding — sliding down golden Saharan dunes with the Atlantic Ocean on the horizon. No experience needed, maximum fun guaranteed.

Where We Go

The Timlaline dunes, 30 minutes north of Agadir near Taghazout, offer perfect sandboarding slopes for all levels. Small dunes for beginners and children, tall steep runs for thrill-seekers. The contrast of golden sand against the blue ocean makes this one of the most photogenic spots in Morocco.

How Sandboarding Works

Your guide teaches you the basics in minutes: how to balance standing up, or how to ride seated like a sled (great for kids). Boards are waxed for maximum speed. Climb, slide, repeat — as many runs as your legs allow during the 3-hour session!

Family Friendly Adventure

Sandboarding is safe for all ages — falling on soft sand does not hurt! Children as young as 5 love sledding down the smaller dunes. We finish with traditional mint tea overlooking the ocean.

Make it a full desert day: combine with quad biking and a camel ride for the ultimate 3-in-1 adventure.
