Vanlife Morocco: sleeping in the Merzouga dunes

Merzouga is small town in the Saraha Desert. It’s famous for having huge red coloured sand dunes.

We drove there in the van to check it out. Let me show you…

We passed through Zagora, heading east

Continuing east to the huge dunes of Merzouga

Merzouga is here

You turn off the main road into the village

Drive through the village

And out the other side

Try to follow the tracks

Because the rest is sand

You’ll probably get stuck regardless

But that’s how you’ll meet Mohammid

We made it 

Welcome to the Merzouga dunes

Tomorrow we’ll head into the dunes

After lunch at Mohammid’s house

In his family home

He made it himself out of bricks he made himself

We headed out with camels and blankets

We took water from an Oasis

And set up our beds at the top of the dune

*less scorpions at the top of the dunes 

Waking up to the reset landscape

And the morning sun
