MOROCCO

January 8, 2023

Taking its place at the north west corner of Africa, Morocco is an interesting meeting point with Europe. It is perhaps one of the easiest ways to experience Africa, thanks to its tourist-friendly nature, easy access by air and sea, and good selection of resorts, hotels and sights to see.

But this really is true Africa. It is a country of ancient walled cities, minarets, maze-like souks, vast sandy deserts and heat.

The northern shore of Morocco is within sight of the coast of Spain and the Rock of Gibraltar. Then, along its western edge the wild Atlantic Ocean beats the shore and sunny beaches. The southern portion of the country is, however, a landscape occupied by the Atlas Mountains, where civilization is sparse and adventure awaits.

While Morocco has many familiar cities, like Agadir, Casablanca, Rabat and Tangier, it is cities like Marrakech, Fes and Essaouira which draw the largest crowds thanks to their visitor-friendly charm and good supply of things to see and do and agreeable places to stay.

Wherever you go, you will find beautiful architecture and traditional Africa mixed with the French and Spanish cultures which have long influenced Morocco.
