If you don’t have camping under a starry Saharan sky on your bucket list, here's your sign to add it! ✨

The hot and dry environment of the Sahara Desert means that there is rarely a cloud covering the night sky, combined with its remote location, far away from civilization and light pollution, ensures an unforgettable stargazing experience.

Explore the desert in style!

Our private 4×4 journey to Erg Chigaga takes you to one of the least explored sand dunes in Morocco. The off-road drive will take you out of M’hamid (where the paved road ends) and into the wilderness of the Saharan Desert.

Once we arrive at our destination, you’ll enjoy a camel ride among the golden hued sand dunes, which will culminate with lunch at the camp or at a desert oasis. After lunch, you can choose to relax in a hammock, sandboard down some dunes, hit some golf balls into the large expanse of sand, learn how to make a traditional Moroccan tagine. There are a myriad of activities for you to choose from! Or you may choose to do nothing at all and bask in the tranquility of the desert, it’s up to you!

Since the 1960s, the laid-back fishing village of Taghazout has been a destination for beach seekers. Since then, it has become a popular surfing destination known for its ideal conditions and less crowded beaches. Both beginner and experienced surfers will find waves suited to their skill level here.

Taghazout is located on just north of the city of Agadir in southwestern Morocco and on the Atlantic coast. This is one of the most idyllic spots on the coast and experiences perennially great weather, a chilled-out atmosphere, and a great selection of accommodations and restaurants.

If surfing isn't your thing, there are plenty of other activities to partake in such as yoga, hiking, trying the local cuisine, or simply relaxing on the beach.

In the northernmost region of the Atlas range is where you'll find the forested slopes of the Middle Atlas.

The Middle Atlas lays south of Fez and Meknes and runs south to towards Marrakech. Often covered in thick forests of oak and cedar, it’s home to lakes, the Barbary ape and several national gems, including the majestic Ouzoud cascades and Ifrane National Park.

Visit this majestic region during our 5 Days/4 Nights Fez & Sahara to Marrakech itinerary.

Looking for a fun activity while you're visiting Erg Chigaga?

You must try sandboarding!

A great way to explore the epic sand dunes of the desert is to surf them 🏂🏄🏾 – unfortunately, climbing the dunes for a greater thrill does require some vigorous uphill walking! But well worth it in our opinion 😉

One of our favourite places to spend a night in Skoura is the well-appointed riad L’Ma Lodge.

This charming guest house is situated inside of a traditionally built adobe house, located in the heart of the palm grove of Skoura. The Skoura palm grove is one of the few remaining groves in Morocco that is still inhabited and cultivated. This area is renowned for its charm, beauty and traditional architecture.

During your stay at this property, explore the luxuriant garden and private pool area, both of which offer a multitude of places to relax.

Have you enjoyed a cup of authentically prepared Moroccan mint tea?

Moroccan mint tea is part of everyday life for the majority of Moroccans. This tea is usually served as a welcoming gesture to friends, family and guests upon arrival.

To make traditional Moroccan mint tea, the ingredients are Gunpowder loose tea, a generous bunch of fresh spearmint leaves, and sugar. You'll also need either a Moroccan teapot or a heat-resistant teapot that can support your stove’s heat without breaking, to brew the tea. To enhance the tea, you can add other herbs, spices, and aromatics.

To serve the tea in the traditional ceremonial way, it must be poured from a height. The higher the tea is poured, the more foam you will get on top of your drink and that is the mark of a true traditional Moroccan Mint Tea.

At our desert camp in Erg Chigaga we prepare a traditional tea ceremony for all our arriving guests to welcome them to the camp!
