Sidi Ifni.
Ocean fog rolls up the cliffs every morning, smothering pastel blue facades left behind by the Spanish military garrison in 1969. Sidi Ifni sits on a rocky shelf overlooking the Atlantic, smelling of diesel, salt crust, and frying fish. You walk the empty roundabouts of Plaza Hassan II, then drop down to the port where wooden trawlers unload tons of sardines straight into waiting plastic crates. It is quiet, windswept, and completely unbothered by the modern resort rush.
