Merzouga & the Sahara

Erg Chebbi, the Rissani hammada and the desert edge.

About the Region

The great sand sea of Erg Chebbi and the stony hammada around Rissani hold Morocco’s classic desert birds. Seasonal lakes can appear after rain and pull in wildfowl and waders in the middle of the dunes. This is our home ground — the company was founded here.
