Imagine starting a road trip on the sunny beaches of Tangier, climbing into the snowy Atlas Mountains, and finally, watching the stars rise over the Sahara Desert. Morocco’s environment is central to daily life, and while the country shares some similarities with nearby nations, it truly stands out for its remarkable variety and natural beauty.
Because of this beauty, travelers arrive from all over the world. They chase mountain rivers that tumble into waterfalls, wander across sweeping sand dunes, and stroll along the lush green coasts of the North. Along the Atlantic from Casablanca to Agadir, surf towns radiate with peaceful energy as visitors track the next perfect wave.
Meanwhile, much of Morocco’s land supports farming, which keeps markets busy and tables full. Fertile soils help farmers grow fresh fruits and vegetables, and broad grazing areas allow people to raise chickens, sheep, goats, cattle, and even camels. Out at sea, the waters are rich with life, so early-rising fishermen bring tuna and sardines to coastal markets each day, adding the salty scent of the ocean to the morning air.
