Where?
Tafedna is a small fishing village on the coast
between Agadir and Essaouira. It's located in
a stunning bay, with sand beaches, dunes and
cliffs, far away from the main tourist paths,
surrounded by nature and argan trees. We
will stay in beautiful "hôtel de charme"
Tasgua-Yan, each room has its private
bathroom and terrace with views to the sea,
in 8 min walk you will be at the beach. Our
yoga shala faces the bay and the hotel has a
big swimming pool. The retreat includes a
half day trip to Essaouira, a beautiful little
fishing town with many cafes and things to
see, and a stop at an Argan Oil cooperative on
the way there. This will allow you to
experience Morocco and see a bit more of
the coast.
Tafedna can be reached with a taxi (or
minivan) from Marrakesh in approximately
3.5 hours and Agadir (3 hour) or from Essaouira (1 hour).
Lisa, our swiss friend and coordinator on the spot, will help arrange transfers for you, hassle free!
