Morocco

Morocco is a nation so intrinsically beautiful and rich with heritage that, the moment you step foot on it, you feel as though you have been transported to another time and place. The landscapes vary from snow-laden slopes to pristine deserts. Home to Casablanca and the Western Sahara, Morocco offers luxury vacations and some of the most colourful shopping areas in the entire world.

Morocco is located in Northwest Africa and is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, the Atlantic Ocean, Mauritania and Algeria. In the south lie the sandy wastes of the Sahara desert, but in the north is a fertile coastal plain and is home to most of the population.

Morocco's climate is moderate and subtropical, as it is cooled by breezes from the Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean. The temperatures in the interior are more extreme, with cooler winters and scorching summers during which temperatures can easily exceed 38°C. In the Atlas Mountains, temperatures can drop below zero and mountain peaks are snow capped throughout most of the year. The winter in the north of the country is wet and rainy, while in the south, at the edge of the Moroccan Sahara, it is dry and bitterly cold.
