Tleta Tagmoute Oasis – Village of Ait Kine
Trip from Agadir: 3 hours 40 mins
It is a verdant spot at the foot of arid mountains sculpted by time. Date palms are present but there are also fruit trees such as pomegranate trees or olive trees in the shelter of which cereals, vegetables and alfalfa grow. The place is to be visited on foot to understand the organization of oasis life. The séguias that irrigate each plantation can serve as a guide.
Park upstream from the Oasis, walk through the plantations and enjoy the calm.
