Sandboarding at the Timlalin Dunes (also known as Taboga Sand Dunes) is one of the premier day trips from Taghazout. Located north near Tamri along the coastal highway, this unique geological landscape features massive golden sand dunes cascading directly into the Atlantic Ocean.
Because the dunes are roughly 35 minutes away by car, most travelers book organized half-day packages that combine transport, board equipment, and mint tea at sunset, though self-drive rentals are available for independent travelers with a rental car.

What actually changes the price
Transport & Distance
Timlalin is ~35 km north of Taghazout along the N1 coastal road. Taking a shared tour (250–300 MAD) is often cheaper than hiring a private taxi round-trip if traveling solo or as a couple.
Sunset vs. Morning Departure
Late afternoon departures (around 16:30) are standard because the sand cools down and the dunes provide a prime viewpoint over the ocean for sunset.
Activity Combos
Combining sandboarding with quad biking, buggy tours, or a camel trek adds 150–300 MAD to the base price, but delivers a full 5–6 hour desert-and-coast experience.
