Scented jasmine, coloured hibiscus, this paradise is lived in all year round by storks and herons. Capture the magic of the Oudaya Casbah on top of the hill, between the sea and the mdina. In the Casbah there are many places to take in the beautiful view of the bay and the town of Sal, which lies across the Oued. The Casbah is like a stone fortress opening up onto a beautiful Andalou garden and one of the most pleasant places to relax, the Caf Maure. It's here that you'll come to sip mint tea and to taste a gazelle's horn, a regional speciality, while waiting for the sunset which sets the sky and the landscape alight every evening.
