Morocco, November 2025

Landing in Marrakech, a rental car and a night drive down to Agadir. Then the coast, Taghazout, Imsouane, Essaouira, the desert and back to Marrakech.

Jemaa el-Fna at sunset, Marrakech, Morocco, 2025

Morocco is a second home to me. In November I went back with Chiara. We landed in Marrakech, rented a car and drove down to Agadir overnight, so we would wake up already by the ocean.

From Agadir we worked our way back up the coast. Taghazout, with the skatepark above the ocean where the local kids gather at sunset. Imsouane, the longest waves in Africa. Essaouira, with its harbour and its medina on the sea.

Then inland: the desert at the gates of Marrakech, and the last days in the city. Jemaa el-Fna from above as the sky goes dark and the square lights up, and the gardens of the Medina, where a single door is enough to shut out the noise.

Taghazout Skatepark

The skatepark above the ocean in Taghazout, at the hour when the sun drops behind the ramps and the kids keep riding.

Marrakech

Marrakech in November: Jemaa el-Fna from above as the sky goes dark and the square lights up, and the riads, where the city goes quiet behind the grilles.
