One of the last things that comes to mind while thinking about Morocco is stargazing. However, it is an ideal site because, while most of us live in locations with high population density and light pollution, which interfere with the natural starry sky, there are portions of Morocco that have no city lights. The sand dunes of Merzouga Erg Chebbi are one of Morocco's most stunning and unusual stargazing spots.
Try a camel ride into the Sahara for an unforgettable night of stargazing under one of the desert's most stunning skies. In the Sahara, the stars are stunning, but the sky is overcast.
During this nocturnal stargazing excursion, you'll get an unrivaled view of the cosmic beauties of the Merzouga desert night sky. The Casablanca Astro trip, led by trained Moroccan astronomers, includes private transports and all meals. Close-
Morocco Desert Stargazing provides Private Stargazing Tours all year round. Astronomers will guide you around the stars, allowing you to marvel at the beauty of the night sky while enjoying a Merzouga desert astronomy experience.
