Merzouga : Pearl of the Desert

Merzouga is a small village in southeastern Morocco, located near the Algerian border and famous as the gateway to the Erg Chebbi dunes-one of the tallest and most spectacular sand dune fields in the Sahara Desert. This desert town is known for its stunning landscapes, traditional Berber culture, and a variety of desert activities such as camel trekking, 4x4 excursions, and overnight stays in desert camps under the stars. Merzouga offers visitors a unique chance to experience the vast Sahara, enjoy breathtaking sunsets, and immerse themselves in the warm hospitality of its local Berber community. The nearby seasonal salt lake Dayet Srji and surrounding villages add to the cultural and natural richness of the area, making Merzouga a must-visit destination for desert adventures in Morocco
