IN THE FOOTPRINTS OF THE DINOSAURS OF ANZA BEACH<\/div>\n

North of Agadir, a few kilometers from the city center, is the town of Anza. This is where more than 200 tridactyl (three digits pointing forward) footprints of dinosaurs on the seafront have been discovered. Initial investigations have revealed that this new site is of paramount importance for scientists.<\/p>\n

According to experts, the passage of dinosaurs there dates back 85 million years. It is the first place of its kind in Morocco of the upper Cretaceous age and more precisely the Santonian. Check the tides because you have to go at low tide to see them!<\/p>\n
