Support the Sport Eveil Académie
The MARATHON DES SABLES is not only a legendary race. It also reflects a spirit of solidarity and sharing, dear to Patrick and Marie Bauer’s hearts for the last 25 years, along with several competitors and partners. The race is thus associated with charity or humanitarian projects, such as the creation of the "Sport Eveil Academie" (Sports Initiation Academy). more
If the MARATHON DES SABLES is the Queen of Saharan competitions, SULTAN is the King of tea. Out of this marriage, the 25th "SULTAN MARATHON DES SABLES" has been born. more
AOI has a scale of reimbursement should you cancel your enrolment during the last few months before the race (see Art.26 of race regulations). more

LE JARDIN DES AROMES - Ouarzazate
This restaurant opened its doors a few weeks ago and is proving to be a pure delight. Nothing but sophistication here where flavours rule the roost and the harmony and beauty of the setting is on an equal footing with the wonders of the menu. Terrace dining areas overlook a small flower-filled garden and soft cosy seating entices you over to make your selection from the menu. more
A new look for the MDS visuals
For the 25th anniversary, AOI wanted to give the logo a new youthful makeover. This was achieved with the involvement of Emilie Caillaud-Houel, a graphic designer who has been a volunteer on the MDS team for 3 years. more
