Planning an Agafay Desert trip from Marrakech? Pack for a rocky outdoor landscape, bright sunshine and the possibility of cooler temperatures after sunset. The right clothes will make your Agafay Desert experience much more comfortable.
What to wear during the day
Choose breathable clothing that gives you freedom to move. Lightweight trousers, a loose shirt or a comfortable T-shirt work well for walking around the camp. A wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses and sunscreen are helpful in sunny weather. Closed shoes with good grip are more practical than delicate sandals on the uneven ground.
What to wear for a sunset dinner
You can dress comfortably for dinner in the desert; there is no need for formal clothing. Bring a light jacket or extra layer, especially outside summer. In cooler months, trousers, a warm top and a jacket are sensible choices. Check the weather before leaving Marrakech rather than relying only on the afternoon temperature.
Clothes for quad biking and camel rides
For a quad biking experience, wear closed shoes and clothing you do not mind getting dusty. Avoid long, loose scarves that could become caught in moving parts. Follow the guide’s instructions and use the protective equipment supplied by the operator.
For a camel ride, trousers or comfortable longer shorts can make sitting on the saddle easier. Secure hats and carry a small bag rather than bulky luggage.
What to bring for a pool day
If your package includes swimming, bring swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and dry clothes for afterwards. Check your booking for what is included; lunch, pool access and transport can vary by package. See our Agafay pool and lunch experience.
