About Morocco & SAHATA Desert

Morocco is located at the tip of the Continent of Africa. It is 14 km away from Spain, across the Strait of Gibraltar. Morocco has about 1.2 times the area of Japan. Some mountains are above 4,000 m, the magnificent fertile coast runs along the Atlantic and the Mediterranean sea. There are also a desert and oases. Therefore Morocco has various types of land which are not easy to express with one word. Eight areas are listed by UNESCO as world heritage sites in Morocco. There are many places you should visit such as the Rome ruins, the old towns from the Islamic era 1,000 years ago, and Kasbahs which are walled citadels and towns. There are also seaside cities dating from the 15th - 16th centuries with an atmosphere of southern Spain or Portugal.

The SAHARA desert is spread out across south eastern Morocco. It takes more than one day by car to travel from Mohamed V International Airport in Casablanca to the major town of SAHARA. BUT the pace of life here is a world away from life in your city. Please come to the SAHARA desert.
