Traveller notes on Merzouga in November
Other months in Merzouga
Merzouga's forum calls December warm by day and genuinely cold once the sun drops — regulars compare it to autumn conditions elsewhere, with one visitor reporting temperatures dropping to around freezing overnight. The trade-off is clear desert skies and some of the best stargazing of the year, so a proper warm layer for camp at night is standard advice.
