Top places to visit in Morocco
Marrakech
Marrakech’s medina is a walled city, built during the Berber Empire. Meander through souks sampling local cuisine, tour ancient ruins and admire its mix of mosques, palaces and markets.
Essaouira
Take to the beach in Essaouira – a beautiful, breezy port city on Morocco’s Atlantic coast. Nicknamed the ‘Wind City of Africa’, it’s particularly popular with windsurfers. Escape the coastal currents in the winding spice-filled alleys of the medina.
Taghazout
A small fishing village north of Agadir is home to some of the best waves in Africa. If you prefer calmer waters, pop over to Paradise Valley on the Tamraght River to take in a palm-lined gorge, complete with pools and waterfalls.
Casablanca
Casablanca is Morocco’s largest city, a commercial hub boasting a blend of Moorish, art deco, and French colonial influences. Admire the graceful architecture with a fresh Atlantic breeze to keep you cool.
