Draa River
The Draa River is the longest river in Morocco, stretching approximately 1,100 kilometers. It originates in the Atlas Mountains and flows southward through the Sahara Desert, eventually reaching the Atlantic Ocean near the town of Agadir. The river is crucial for irrigation in the arid regions it traverses, supporting agriculture and local communities.
The Draa River is characterized by its seasonal flow, with water levels varying significantly throughout the year. It is also known for its picturesque landscapes, including palm groves and ancient kasbahs along its banks. The river plays a vital role in the ecology and economy of the surrounding areas.
