Camping Auberge Oasis Palmier

Zagora


Just north of Amezrou, this campsite has a mixture of palm-shaded pitches, Berber-style tents and a few rooms. It also has a cafe, free wi-fi, hot showers (Dh10) and electric hook-ups (Dh20) and they even deliver fresh bread to your tent. Unsurprisingly, it's often full of happy campers, so book in advance.
