Precariously strapping two surfboards to the roof of a taxi, driving some distance south of Essaouira and asking the driver to pick us up in a couple of days (and he showed up on time!) was a true adventure.

The surf was choppy with strong undercurrents, but we had the beach and dunes literally to ourselves. Keep a keen eye out for each other if you attempt this because there are no lifeguards!

We stayed on the "campsite" - a patch of stony ground with trees for cover and a tap. Sidi Kauki doesn't have much by way of facilities, but eating delicious tagine in a hut by the beach was a simple pleasure.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21658 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/20015 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/20015 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11988
Located about twenty miles west of Shetland Mainland, in the wilds of the North Atlantic, Foula is THE ideal getaway spot for people who love landscapes, flowers, birds, cetacean life - and who don't hanker for crowds or pubs or fancy restaurants or even shops (because Foula has none of those!)

As well as the highest cliffs in occupied Britain (over a quarter of a mile of vertical rock!), Foula is a delight to walk and explore, and its tiny population of under 30 residents make you feel very much at home. I've been travelling for over thirty years, have visited more than forty countries - and would go back to Foula again in a heartbeat.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11988 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11955
But you also get rare birdlife, fresh lobsters delivered by local fishermen and the kind of deep, utter peace you're hard pressed to get anywhere else in the UK.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11955 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8151 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8151
