The short version, from the cited sources

Legzira, on Morocco's Atlantic coast near Sidi Ifni, was famous for two colossal red sandstone arches striding into the ocean; the larger collapsed in 2016, and the survivor still ranks among the great natural sights of the Moroccan shore. The cliffs glow rust-red at sunset, paragliders work the updrafts, and the beach below is walked at low tide. It is a landscape beach: the swimming is secondary and the surf is strong.
