Legzira sea arches and beach walk

The photo below came up in my Facebook memories feed from eleven years ago. I was right about the arch being close to collapse, it did so a couple of years later. But there are more arches to the south.

One way to explore is to walk north along the beach from Sidi Ifni. It's about 10km and it's best to start about an hour before low tide. The best known of the arches on the beach route is Aman Ali but from memory there's another two more.

Once at Legzira, there's a couple of hotels and some restaurants right on the beach, so have a lovely fish tagine for lunch, then get a taxi back to Sidi Ifni.

Hi Tim, with "walk" you mean that the motorbikes can be ridden on the beach trough the arches ? or that practice is actually forbidden ?

Walk means walk ;) hence the need to take a taxi back.

It is possible at low tide to get a motorcycle onto the beach at Legzira per the photo of my Ténéré from 2010, but you wouldn't be able to ride the 10km from Sidi Ifni to Legzira along the beach due to rock pools.

I visited Legzira a couple of months ago and it's pretty much the same, the only challenge in getting down onto the firm sand is crossing the band of loose dry sand which extends for about 5m.
