Résumé

A beach-monitoring program was carried in the Moroccan littoral between Fnideq and M'diq that forms a great physiographic. The present work deals with littoral morphology, recent evolution and relationships between littoral evolution and human actuations. In the period between 1937 and 1994, a homogeneous retreat rate of 2 m/year was recorded along the study coast. An opposite trend was recorded updrift of the main ports. Other human structures, such as villages, summerhouses, hotels, were built on the dune ridges, blocking the natural interchange of sediment between dune and beach.
