Morocco is a North African country with coastlines on both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Known as the "Kingdom of the West" (al−Maghriba) in Arabic, its culture is a unique blend of Arab, Berber, African, and European influences.

In September, Morocco enjoys pleasant, cooler temperatures after the summer heat, making it ideal for outdoor activities and cultural festivals like the Tanjazz Festival. It's a great time for beach-going, mountain hikes, and desert adventures, as the Sahara's intense heat begins to ease. The harvest season starts, offering fresh local food, and the decreased tourist crowds allow for a more relaxed experience exploring markets and historical sites.
