Skoura is a fertile oasis lined with immense palm groves that provide great views of the Atlas Mountains alongside deserted landscapes. It is renowned for the cultivation of roses. The palm groves were laid out in the 12th century by the Almohad sultan Yacoub el-Mansour and named after its original inhabitants, the Berbers of the Haskourene tribe. The most beautiful kasbahs in southern Morocco can be found here. Many of them are still partially inhabited. As a matter of fact, there are several pathways tunnel through the vegetation from one kasbah to another within this fertile island—a true oasis, perhaps the most intensely verdant in Morocco.
A majestic Moroccan holiday, from tours through fortified villages and UNESCO World Heritage sites to the ocher-colored dunes of the Sahara, large green palm groves, and the high snow-capped peaks of the Atlas mountains. You'll experience labyrinthine medinas, crowded bazaars, and coastal cities as well as delight yourself with fantastic food.
