Well where to start? there's so much to suggest both for routes and sights to see. Some ideas roughly
Anti Atlas
High Atlas
Essaouira
Marrakech
Tizi n Test pass
Todra Gorge
Imichil
Chefchoen
Desert Sculptures
Erg Cheggaga
Ait Benhaddou
I'll also be in Morocco in October, happy to meet up for a chat or some off road routes if our paths cross

Gibraltar service is once weekly for Moroccan workers on the rock. Best to go Tanger Med to Algeciras on Trasmediterranea line, see AFerryTo

Could also sail from Almeria to Mellila/Nador by night. Ferry leaves around midnight and arrives early in the morning. Crossover to Nador and the travel begins.
Melilla is a Spanish enclave in Morocco

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
