Oualidia Lagoon

Flamingos and oyster boats in the protected lagoon of Oualidia on the Atlantic coast

A protected Atlantic lagoon between El Jadida and Safi, famous for its oysters and birdlife. The lagoon is shallow, warm, and calm — the opposite of the Atlantic coast outside. Flamingos, herons, and avocets work the shallows. The oyster farms are open to visitors.

Oualidia is a lunch stop on our coastal route between El Jadida and Essaouira. Oysters from the lagoon, flamingos in the shallows — it's the quietest hour on the coast.
