This post is all about photos of Morocco.
Morocco offers the bliss of the Sahara, the bustle of the city, and the calmness of the sea. If you need convincing on why you need to take a trip to Morocco, look no further. Here are some photos to inspire you to book a trip to this beautiful country.
My Morocco Essentials
1. Marrakesh
Sunset in the very center of Marrakesh/ Marrakech, Jemaa el-Fna square. The square offers a taste of the very essence of Moroccan culture. You can expect to enjoy fresh smoothies while you walk to the beat of drums as charmed snakes dance around you. Jemaa el-Fna square is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
2. The Sahara Desert
One of the most stunning natural sights in the world.
3. Essaouira
Essaouira is a sleepy fishing town that lies in the Western region of Morocco. Consider taking a short two-hour taxi ride from Marrakech. I recommend spending two days here, this charming town deserves more than a day trip.
4. Tinghir
Learning about traditional Berber carpentry.
5. Aït Benhaddou
Take a walk through the ancient city of Aït Benhaddou. Another UNESCO site to add to your list!
6. Kisses for the camel!
I just had to say my thanks to my camel that I rode in the Sahara.
7. Your tuk-tuk awaits.
8. Captain, Oh Captain!
9. Explore Dades Valley
Dades Valley is comprised of rugged gorges carved out by the Dadès River in Morocco. The river originates in the High Atlas range of the Atlas mountains.
10. Camel Squad!
11. When visiting Morocco, a dramatic desert selfie is a must!
12. Learn about the beautiful Berber carpets.
Berber people are indigenous communities that live across Northern Africa. Berber’s have their own language and are made up of different races and nationalities.
13. View ancient city landscapes
How can you not feel like Indiana Jones when you come across landscapes like this?!
14. Adventure to the top of Aït Benhaddou
15. Capture the blue boats of Essaouira

Beautiful pictures! This looks like an amazing trip.
Thanks Ashley, it was an incredible trip!
Morocco is on the top of my bucket list…right next to Egypt. I had hoped to visit in 2020 but because of all the recent news, plans have been delayed. In the meantime, I will pin this for later planning! Amazing photos…thanks for the tips!
It’s amazing!! Such a beautiful culture shock. But I agree, maybe withhold from traveling at this time and wait for things to clear up. I would love to visit Egypt sometime as well.
Beautiful photos! I love Morocco too. It was one of my favourite countries! So much colour !
These photos really capture the essence of Morocco. Super lovely.
Absolutely gorgeous photos – this brings me right back to my time in Morocco!
Wow, these photos are amazing! I already wanted to go to Morocco but now I’m moving it to the top of my travel bucket list for when we can travel again!
