Health & Safety

Merzouga is very safe. The biggest risks are dehydration and sunburn, not crime.

Connectivity

Mobile coverage (Maroc Telecom, Orange, Inwi) works in the village but not in the deep dunes.

Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Merzouga travel guide.
