Traveling through Morocco by motorhome is a rewarding adventure, allowing you to explore every corner of the country at your own pace. From the bustling streets of the medinas to the tranquil desert oases, each leg of the journey promises fascinating discoveries and unforgettable encounters with Moroccan culture.

Morocco's climate varies depending on the season, with spring and autumn being the best times to travel by motorhome without suffering from the extreme heat. On this route, we will show you the best campsites, parking spots, and travel tips so that you can immerse yourself in an exciting journey full of adventure, vibrant colors, and flavors that only Morocco can offer.

On our motorhome journey through Morocco, you will experience a captivating mix of landscapes, historic cities, and picturesque coastal villages. From the vibrant Tangier to the charming Essaouira, each stop offers the opportunity to discover the hidden treasures of this fascinating country. Here are some of the highlights of our itinerary, where history, culture, and nature blend into an unforgettable experience.

The motorhome route through Morocco begins at the port of Algeciras, where the ferry that crosses the Strait of Gibraltar is located. This crossing marks the threshold between Europe and Africa, and the excitement builds as we approach the Moroccan coast.

Upon arriving at Tanger Med, one of Africa’s most important ports, you can spend the night in this parking area and recharge for the rest of the journey.

Our first destination is Cape Spartel, an impressive promontory where the Mediterranean Sea and the Atlantic Ocean meet. Here, you will enjoy spectacular panoramic views and feel the ocean breeze as you watch the waters of these two great oceans mingle.

From Cape Spartel, we head to the famous Hercules Caves, an archaeological and natural site full of myths and legends. These caves, with their impressive rock formations and ocean views, offer a unique and unforgettable experience.

The third stop on our motorhome route takes us to the majestic capital of Morocco, Rabat. There is a convenient car park here between Pakistan Street and Egypt Avenue.

On arrival, you can book a guided tour of the city - it's well worth it as there's plenty to see, including the Kasbah des Oudaïas, an ancient bastion of narrow streets, whitewashed houses and lush gardens. From here you have a breathtaking view of the Bou Regreg river and the Atlantic Ocean.

Another attraction is the Hassan Tower, an unfinished masterpiece from the 12th century that offers a glimpse into Morocco's glorious past. This imposing structure and the surrounding columns bear witness to the ambitious project of Sultan Yacoub al-Mansur.

Another place of interest is the Mausoleum of Mohammed V, a magnificently decorated royal mausoleum that houses the tombs of King Mohammed V and his sons, King Hassan II and Prince Abdallah. This monument is not only the resting place of the Moroccan royal family, but also an architectural jewel representing Islamic art and culture.

After the guided tour, we have free time to explore the city on our own. Stroll through the wide avenues and bustling markets of Rabat and immerse yourself in the daily life of the capital. There is no better way to end the day than relaxing on one of the city's many terraces and savouring a traditional Moroccan tea.

After exploring Rabat, the route takes you to the coastal town of Mohammedia, where you can spend the night at the Océan Bleu campsite. Here you can make a stopover and relax before continuing your journey. You can spend the night here or simply park near the beach and enjoy the great atmosphere of this harbour town, which is known for its beaches and lively city life.

The next stage takes us to Marrakech, Morocco's vibrant ‘Red City’, known for its rich history and fascinating culture. With its characteristic reddish buildings and unique atmosphere, Marrakech is a destination not to be missed. The city offers a unique blend of historical monuments, tranquil gardens and bustling markets, making every corner an adventure to discover.

We leave our motorhome in the nearest car park and continue our walk through the medina of Marrakech, the beating heart of the city. This labyrinth of narrow alleyways and bustling markets, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a unique experience for the senses. Among the hidden gems of the medina are the souks of Marrakech, where you can get lost among the shops and workshops. Here you can find everything from carpets and jewellery to spices and clothes, and experience the art of haggling with local craftsmen.

After the hustle and bustle of the medina, a relaxing break awaits you in the Majorelle Gardens. This oasis of calm, designed by French artist Jacques Majorelle and restored by Yves Saint Laurent, offers a refreshing change of pace with its exotic plants, fountains and famous cobalt blue building. Not far away, the Bahia Palace with its ornate courtyards, gardens and rooms transports us to the luxury of the 19th century and reflects the opulence and attention to detail of Moroccan architecture of the time.

We start the day with a drive to Agadir, a city known for its modern promenade and golden beaches. Here you can park and then stroll along the seafront promenade, where you can enjoy the sea view and the sea breeze. Agadir, which was almost completely rebuilt after the 1960 earthquake, offers a relaxed atmosphere and first-class tourist facilities.

A visit to the Kasbah of Agadir is a must. This ancient fortress on a hill with panoramic views of the city and harbour offers a historical perspective and a spectacular view of the sunset. The walls of the Kasbah may only be in ruins, but they tell the story of a bygone era and give you a flavour of life in old Agadir.

After exploring Agadir, we drive to Taghazout, a small fishing village that has developed into a surfer's paradise. This hilltop car park is a great way to spend the day in Taghazout and enjoy the magnificent beaches and perfect waves that attract surfers from all over the world.

The atmosphere in Taghazout is relaxed and welcoming, with a mix of locals and tourists enjoying life on the coast. The many cafés and restaurants on the beach offer delicious seafood dishes and unrivalled views of the sea.

We continue our route in the motorhome and drive towards Safi, a city famous for its high-quality ceramics. Safi has been a major centre of ceramic production for centuries and its craftsmen are widely known for their skills and creativity.

When visiting the city, be sure to visit the pottery quarter, where you can observe traditional pottery techniques and purchase unique pieces as souvenirs.

In addition to ceramics, Safi offers other historical and cultural sights such as the Château de la Mer and the Great Mosque, which reflect the city's rich heritage. Walking through the streets of Safi, travellers can immerse themselves in the unique atmosphere of the city and enjoy the combination of Arabic and Berber influences.

After exploring Safi, the journey continues to Oualidia, a charming coastal town known for its beautiful beaches and sheltered lagoon. At the Laguna Park campsite, you can relax and unwind after a long day of exploring. The golden sandy beaches and calm waters are ideal for swimming, water sports or simply enjoying a day in the sun and sea.

Oualidia is also famous for its fresh oysters, and a visit to Ostréa, one of the local restaurants, to sample this delicacy is highly recommended. The Oualidia lagoon offers a tranquil and picturesque setting for kayaking or simply admiring the natural landscape.

Before we return to Tangier on the last leg of our exciting motorhome tour through Morocco, we make a stopover in Tetouan, known as the ‘white dove’ of Morocco due to its white buildings and tranquil atmosphere. Tetouan is rich in history and culture and its medina has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A stroll through the narrow streets with their numerous souks, artisan workshops and historical monuments, which reflect the Andalusian and Moroccan influence, is like travelling back in time.

The medina of Tetouan is less touristy than other medinas in Morocco, which makes the experience even more authentic. We recommend exploring the markets, admiring the traditional architecture and enjoying the local hospitality.
