Et-taous ⵟⴰⵡⵙ الطاوس

Visit Et-taous for experiencing Morocco's south.

Et-taous sits near the edge of the Sahara, where sand sometimes sneaks into your shoes even when you swear you emptied them. In town, markets open at sunrise and close whenever the owner feels like it, so schedules are more like suggestions. Travelers swap stories about camel rides that went sideways—sometimes literally. Some say the best hotel in Et-taous has the softest pillows, others say it has the loudest roosters. Local tea pours seem endless, and nobody ever finds the spoon when they need it.

Travel destination popular things to do or visit in Et-taous, plus best hotel in Et-taous

Many visitors wander into Et-taous expecting only silence and sand, but the town has a knack for surprises. One morning, you might find yourself joining a group headed to a date palm grove, led by a local who claims to know every tree by name (though he sometimes forgets his cousin’s birthday). The market bursts with color and noise, with spices that end up in your bag even if you meant to buy socks. If you want to see the dunes, just follow the footprints—unless you follow the goat tracks instead, which takes you to a wedding party by accident.

There is a consensus that the best hotel in Et-taous offers more than just a bed; last week, a guest reported that the shower sang, though it turned out to be the wind and not a hidden opera singer. Some travelers insist the real luxury is the rooftop, where the stars put on a show that beats Netflix, except for the time when clouds photobombed the view. As for food, couscous appears on every menu, but the flavor changes with each chef’s mood, and sometimes with the weather, or possibly with the phase of the moon (nobody is really sure). If you leave Et-taous without getting sand in at least three pockets, you probably haven't left your room.
