“Investments made in 2023 have transformed our beaches, making them more welcoming and better equipped», Confides Houssame Morhal, president of the social, cultural and sports commission of the commune of Dar Bouazza. “This metamorphosis has aroused collective enthusiasm, which encourages local authorities to redouble their efforts for the rest of the region’s beaches in the years to come.», he adds in an exchange with Le360.
For summer 2024, the work included the modernization of existing infrastructure, the creation of new leisure areas and the improvement of access to the beach. Visitors will be able to discover children’s play areas, sanitary facilities, including for people with specific needs, a beach radio… and even a library for lovers of reading under the sun. Free parasols are also placed in the sand, providing perfect relaxation spots for those who prefer to stay in the shade.
