Hope you have up to date maps this time.
Send me a message when you cross. My plan is to get well down the coast(TanTan and beyond) and I can give you a heads up on roads and locations if interested.
 
just follow the sea you cant go wrong all the wayto dakhla.
tarfaya is interesting . go in the museum there ,plus the little island off shore was uk territory at one time.
if you can get down to the beaches just south of boujdour you can get out to the shipwrecks on the beach. or swim out to them.
have fun there,s lots to be had.

if my post makes a few people think of possible consequences of their naievity then that has got to be a good thing. too many people in the west are so arrogant about how they seek pleasure in a poor country. most morrocans could never in 10 lifetimes afford to buy a motorhome. holidaying over there and rubbing their noses in your obvious trappings of wealth is just so wrong on too many levels.
I thought that, until we went to Greece this year during their ongoing turmoil !! BUT.. We were welcomed with open arms by everyone we met, thanking us for helping their economy by bringing our money to their land in this time of trouble..
So... Each to their own conscience say I......
 
a few pics to get you into the trip.

Van packed;) Canterbury park n ride today Chunnel tomorrow. Slowly meander down south. Back in UK July. See you all in Morocco(y) safe travels everyone

Had the bl@#dy van packed since we got back in may.

Yes, let's hope the storms don't cause the devastation that last year's did.
I wonder how they getting on rebuilding the camp sites at Sidi Ifni.
 
its quite normal for end oct and november to be very windy and very wet. have seen it where its like driving through one big lake on the way down . la rache to kenitra is one big lake .was worse before they built the m,way. but good fun .
in the late 90,s the bridge at banana village got washed clean away over night . no one could get to agadir along the coast and it was miles to go back to get round . the army came and built a temporary bridge .
 
horshamjack -- bon voyage! See you down in Morocco
 
Guy's do you think this would fit a Moroc LPG bottle ? I'm thinking of putting a filter in between bottle and fill point on my motorhome and this may be a solution. I welcome your comments and views.

I have had two regulators fail with oily residue, but neit.her were due to Moroccan gas. Both failed in Spain after using Spanish Autogas for three months.
 
i use good old bottle top regulators .





i think the best regulators are the old style bottle top ones i have some here that are years old and still working . plus for most of the last 20 years they have had spanish and moroccan gas used almost all the time . i,m sure there is a problem either with the new regs or how they are fitted with maybe a dip in the feed to reg hose. but cant say have ever changed a bottle top reg with a fault .
i use 21mm calor supplied adaptor to use old uk /moroccan butane regs . cheap in maroc .
or a very old propane reg that must be thirty years old .
