Are you looking for fun-filled family holidays packed with epic adventures and lazy days by the pool? Morocco delivers on both fronts.
Activities for kids in Morocco are as unique as they are abundant – think camel trekking, sandboarding in the Sahara, bike rides and hikes in the Atlas Mountains and treasure hunting in the ancient souks.
And with lots of family-friendly places to stay, from all-inclusive beach resorts to conveniently located riads, all budgets and requirements are catered for. What’s more, direct flights from the UK to Morocco are pretty short, usually touching down in under four hours.

Marrakech
Family holidays in Marrakech are a sensory feast. Highlights include Jemaa El-Fnaa, a historic square where musicians and acrobats will leave your kids spellbound; the Jardin Majorelle, famed for its electric blue decor; and the Oasiria Water Park. An Atlas Mountains excursion with a mule trip to a Berber village is highly recommended, too.
Agadir
If you’re looking for sun, sea, sand and adventure, Agadir is your go-to, with heaps of activities for kids and adults to choose from. Splash around in Agadir Beach’s gentle waters, ride camels along the coast and pay a visit to Crocoparc to get very close to crocodiles.
Essaouira
Essaouira’s laidback vibe is a winner for crowd-pleasing family holidays. Here your kids can kitesurf or go quad biking while you sip mint tea at a rooftop cafe. Elsewhere, you and your crew can stroll the medina for unique souvenirs, watch the sunset from the ramparts and chill out at Safi Beach.
