Morocco Continues to Catch Global Attention as Top Spring Destination
Rabat — Morocco continues to strengthen its position as a premier destination for tourists worldwide year-round, particularly during spring breaks.
French travel website InfoTravel highlighted the country's tourism assets with a lineup of must-visit spots for tourists seeking an escape from their typical surroundings. Their recommendations offer immersion in a full-package cultural trip to the North African country.
'Strolling through the Kasbah, savoring local specialities, indulging in a traditional spa massage, or embarking on unique excursions, the country offers a wealth of activities for couples, families, and friends,' the website wrote.
The magazine put a series of A-list spots in Marrakech, Rabat, Casablanca, Agadir, and Essaouira.
Sofitel appears to be the favorite spot for the magazine, which offered a zoomed-in glimpse into its establishments in several Moroccan settings, including Rabat and Marrakech.
This is not the first time Morocco or one of its famous cities for tourism has been featured as a premier destination.
Earlier this week, the magazine of Germany's public TV ranked Tangier among the top 10 travel destinations for German travelers this year.
It also spotlighted the main activities travelers can enjoy in the city, including the old medina, diving into the underwater world, and exploring the legendary caves of Hercules.
Earlier this month, Morocco's Tourism Office said German tourist arrivals reached 826,282 in 2024. This marked a 22% increase from 2023 and a 40% growth since 2019.
'Each German tourist who visits Morocco contributes to strengthening the friendship ties between our two countries,' Morocco's ambassador to Germany Zohour Alaoui said.
The ambassador stressed that tourism represents 7.2% of Morocco's GDP in 2024, attributing this performance to the country's geostrategic position, economic indicators, and political stability.
