 The Cape Three Forks

The thousand and one wonders of our province

by Jaafar Hanafi, president FUED

A steep slope, pours a quiet shadow on the sparkling crystal clear water. The shadow of a mountain or shade throughout Africa. It is here that the continent or is it ends here. No matter. In both cases, the originality of the site alone can stir up the most morphs curiosities. And yet ...

Sometimes the nature of these fads to guard against malicious incursion. Fortunately. The harsh terrain and inaccessibility were so well made, to play this role so wonderfully, except when he plays a trick ...

Here and there, abandoned houses. A whole Douar abandoned. The city that ugly option to empty the country of its people, its culture, its history for a final assault. This part of the province of Nador and the approach of the final assault, risk of spilling its treasure in the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean ... for can be protected.

This is the Cape Three Forks, north of the province, near which small Douars strive to preserve a thousand wonders.

Tibouda first, just the right amount of sand and flat to sit between a steep slope of the Rif Mountains and the azure blue of the Mediterranean. One way to snub the city, modernity.

Fishing nets spread out here and there on the little golden sand separates the massif Rif and the crystal clear water of the Mediterranean. On the latter, small boats dock waiting for a ride in search of dorado, swordfish or miles and a species that abound this part of the Mediterranean.

Tibouda is Douar fishing, a little more than 50 out of a total of nearly 350 people. For decades, these fishermen ply the same gestures, the same practices for the happiness of artisanal fisheries.

Kahf Dounia actually the same, with a little more space, sand, people ... but still between the Rif massif and the Mediterranean.

Other Douars and other wonders adorn this region of northern Morocco, to the delight of the story. Some of these are easily Douars accessible by boat, except a short hike through the mountains will also do the trick.

This is an area in the municipality of Bni Chiker province of Nador.

To get there, much of the paved road, overlooking the Mediterranean, especially between downtown and the aforementioned Farkhana Douars. It thus offers a spectacle of magic, unparalleled and rare regions that can afford such a privilege.

Time is no longer on reflection, we must safeguard this heritage, unsurpassed beauty ... Young people from the region have understood.

Mohammed is a teacher. Powered basically land for a noble function, not a noble salary. Everything you need to fight it right. But he has chosen to fight in his own way, from within civil society. The associative action he carries around there or he goes through his veins in his satchel.

Hassan was born in this region and for the region. He knows by heart the mountains, seashores, circuits, shortcuts, caves, people, traditions ... A key that, few people possess.

With others, they embark on a journey that will lead them to fail safe destination, because the cause is just. This is to protect the heritage, the environment, encourage the development, to love their region ..., everything that contributes to sustainable development.

That some debate in major conferences, the youth organization is struggling to make it happen on the ground.

Not more than 40 km from the city of Nador, 19 from the center of Farkhana to delve into the myriad wonders of the past.
