We’d seen photos of this insane hidden beach inside a cave all over the internet and if there was one thing we had to do while volunteering in Portugal it was visit Benagil cave. I did some research online and found out: – You can get a boat ride to the cave from Benagil Beach,…

Free camping in the Algarve and exploring Ponta Da Piedade
We filled the Land Rover with camping gear as if we were going away for two weeks as appose to the two days we had planned. Our hosts sorted out a tent for us to borrow and we stocked up the cool box with beers, cheese and snacks for our days off. It was a…
Exploring The Algarve | Portugal
Normally when we get to a new destination I’ll research what the area has to offer, but Portugal was different, we just made a decision to go there and didn’t really know what to expect. We were based in the countryside about 5km from the coast and luckily we had very kind hosts who allowed…

We set aside 5 days there, giving us a nice weather window to hike Jebel Toubkal and some relax time afterwards. The hiking began as soon as we stepped out of our grand…
Exploring Setti Fatma | Morocco
It was supposed to be an easy day travelling from Essaouira on the coast to Setti Fatma in the High Atlas Mountains…but things didn’t go quite to plan.

Paradise Valley and Banana Beach | Morocco

The Berber town of Tafraoute sits in a stunning location in the Anti Atlas Mountains. We managed to grab a grand taxi with an absolute lunatic of a driver who raced up the mountains and got us into town bang on lunch time. Seeing as we had the rest of the day to explore we…
