Morocco: Desert Light, Atlantic Coast, World-Class Golf
From Marrakech's royal golf heritage to Atlantic coastal courses near Agadir and Essaouira, Morocco pairs a rapidly growing golf scene with some of North Africa's most distinctive scenery. Bluebird Korea arranges tailor-made Morocco golf holidays — courses, hotels, transfers and everything in between.
Why Golfers Choose Morocco
Morocco's golf history runs deeper than most travelers realise — Marrakech has hosted royal and championship golf for decades, and that heritage has grown into a genuinely diverse modern golf scene, from red-earth desert courses framed by the Atlas Mountains to green, links-influenced layouts along the Atlantic coast.
What makes Morocco stand out isn't just the golf — it's everything around it. Riads, souks, desert light and Atlantic surf sit within a short drive of the courses, giving a golf trip here a cultural depth that's harder to find in more purely resort-driven destinations.
