The Valley of the Roses at Kelaat M'Gouna is famous for its stunning Damask roses, extending in rows for 3,000 miles. More than 4,000 tons of rose petals are harvested in the area every year for use in various rose-scented products. When the roses are in bloom the aroma is unforgettable. The Anti-Atlas mountains at Taroudant offer a spectacular drive through gorges and mountain passes with tumbling streams. The area is also known for its birds of prey and kingfishers and has fabulous hiking trails. Aghroud Beach at Agadir is a beautiful stretch of sand and is a favorite with tourists. Merzouga is a village in the Sahara desert in the south of Morocco. It is famous for the nearby Erg Chebbi sand dunes, which reach heights of 1,000 feet and extend for 30 miles. Visitors take camel safaris into the dunes and are able to sample traditional Berber life.
The weather in Morocco is widely varied in winter although mostly mild with some rain thrown in. The further south you go, the warmer the temperatures are, and visiting a beach resort along the Atlantic Ocean in winter will mean plenty of time for yourself. The Atlas Mountains offer opportunities for skiing and snowboarding, and you can also do these activities in sand dunes! The Erg Chebbi dunes offer a respite from city life and you can also ride a camel. Visiting Marrakesh or Casablanca in winter means avoiding crowds and the extremely hot temperatures of summer. And while the weather in this desert country can become cold at night, in the south you can still see temps in the low 70s in winter. A convertible might be a nice choice to cruise around and enjoy the weather.
