Yes...you can get a visa at the border but what you end up paying may be a "spot rate".
You can get the visa at the Mauritanian consulate in Casablanca which happens to be a 200m walk from the Campement de l'Oasis which is where a lot of overlanders stay.
Show up in the morning with 2 assport pics, 2 photocopies of your passport, and your passport in hand. You'll stand in line to get a visa form to fill out, and then they'll expect you back in the afternoon to pick up your passport with a visa stamped in it...
200DH for 1-2 months
400DH for 2-3 months

Hope that helps.

yep, it's easy
 

Got a Mori visa on the border last month for 20 euros and another 10 euros for the customs thing next door. No funny business. Full details here:
