Short answerMany Agafay camps sell day passes: you get a sunbed by the pool, often lunch, and views over the desert hills. It is a great hot-weather plan from May to October. Combine the pool afternoon with a sunset quad or camel ride for a complete desert day without staying overnight.
What a day pass usually includes
- Pool access and sunbeds
- Lunch (set menu or à la carte, depending on the camp)
- Towels
- Sometimes mint tea or a soft drink
Inclusions and conditions vary a lot from one camp to another; transfers are not always included.
Best season
Day passes make the most sense from May to October, when Marrakech gets hot (see Agafay in summer). In winter, the pool is often too cold, but the sunny terraces are still lovely.
The perfect pool and sunset day
- Late morning transfer to the camp.
- Pool and lunch.
- Late afternoon sunset quad or camel ride.
- Dinner in the camp or back to Marrakech.
Tips
- Book ahead on weekends.
- Bring swimwear, sunscreen and a hat.
- Respect the camp’s dress code outside the pool area.
