Desert Climate During New Year: What You Should Know

The Moroccan Sahara is magical during winter, but the desert climate is different from the city.

Days are often pleasant and sunny, while nights and early mornings can be cold.

We recommend bringing:

🧥 Warm layers
🧣 Scarf and hat
🧦 Warm socks
🔦 Headlamp
🔋 Power bank
🧘‍♀️ Comfortable yoga clothes

Our accommodations offer comfort and warmth, but the Sahara remains a remote natural environment. Occasional technical limitations can happen — and this is part of experiencing authentic Morocco.

The desert invites us to embrace simplicity, presence and connection with nature.
