Relax on a Spa break
Tired of travelling and exploring new things? Unlock a new spa experience in Morocco which will make you forget all your stress, calm you down and give you soft baby skin!
Visiting a hammam is one of many tourists’ must-do activities while in Morocco. In a hammam, which is a traditional bath with several spaces for visitors to soak and steam, staff members scrub you down, often using the country’s native rhassoul clay.
In the past, hammams were crucial to daily living because many homes lacked bathrooms. With their unique domed ceiling architecture, the old traditional hammams in the medinas of Fez and Marrakesh still offer a genuinely Moroccan spa experience even today.
In addition to the usual soaking, steaming, and washing, some have increased the scope of their services to include treatments, massages, and aesthetic operations. Although you can find hammams across Morocco, Marrakesh and Fez have the most well-known ones. It’s great that many upmarket resorts feature hammams as well!
Shopping at Marrakesh
The most voracious shopper will find satisfaction in Marrakesh! With skilled artisans knitting, hammering, and carving their items as they have for centuries, the souq’s maze-like corridors are home to everything from scented spices to velvet babouches, slippers and luxurious wool rugs. Additionally, local and foreign designers are increasingly collaborating with them to give traditional crafts a modern spin.
One delight of visiting Morocco is finding artisan stores hidden within the maze of lanes and alleys that make up the ancient city. Those who have the patience and desire to bargain can find a multitude of handicrafts at the souqs!
Visit Marrakesh and spend a whole day shopping for everything your heart desires!
Sun, Sea, and Sand of Agadir
Most visitors to Agadir, Morocco’s primary beach resort, rarely leave their sunbeds. Sun, sea, and sand are the main attractions of a trip here! An incredible stretch of beach surrounds the city, some are open to the public, and some require an entrance charge. The larger coastal hotels each feature a separate guest-only sand area.
Agadir is a popular spring break destination for European families during the Easter break and during the European mid-winter school breaks when there are still plenty of clear days; the summer is the primary travel season.
Make sure to soak yourself in this warm sandy sea!
Dance to the beats at a music festival
Music lovers! Take advantage of this!
Due to the influences ranging from Arabian to sub-Saharan, Amazigh to Andalusian, Morocco’s rich musical culture is quickly rising to the top as a destination for music festivals displaying diverse beats!
The Gnaoua World Music Festival, one of the most well-known, attracts festival-goers to the laid-back seaside city of Essaouira for four days of open-air performances showcasing the mesmerizing rhythms of Gnaoua, a cultural and spiritual tradition introduced north by sub-Saharan enslaved people in the 16th and 17th centuries. Jazzablanca, which takes place in Casablanca, features established and emerging musicians from Morocco and other countries.
Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to soak yourself in Morocco’s musical beats and rhythms!
All types of travellers will find something to do in Morocco! While the glitzy riad hotels, shopping options, and hammam (traditional bathhouse) soak and scrub experiences in Marrakesh and Fez are some of the main tourist attractions for lovers of swanky city breaks.
