Morocco

Morocco is one of North Africa’s most diverse wildlife destinations, where Atlantic wetlands, Mediterranean forests, the Atlas Mountains and the Sahara meet within a relatively small area. Its position between Europe and Africa makes the country particularly important for migratory birds, while its deserts and mountains support highly specialised wildlife. From Barbary macaques in the cedar forests of the Middle Atlas and Barbary sheep in rugged mountain landscapes to desert-adapted mammals, bustards, sandgrouse and North African raptors, Morocco offers exceptional opportunities for birding and wildlife watching across dramatically different ecosystems.
