Practical notes
- Paradise Valley is about 1 hour northeast of Agadir; water levels are highest in spring and after rain, lower in late summer.
- Souss-Massa National Park is roughly 1 hour south — bring binoculars, as it is one of the best birding sites in Morocco.
- The northern bald ibis is critically endangered worldwide; the Souss-Massa colony is internationally important, so keep your distance.
