Anniversary Holidays to Morocco

The Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts give couples a relaxed counterpoint to inland cities, with sea air, fresh seafood and quieter beaches.

• Essaouira ramparts: Essaouira is a fortified seaside town with a UNESCO-listed medina, sitting on the Atlantic coast roughly 170 km from the inland imperial city. Couples can walk the ramparts at sunset and eat seafood at the harbour, where fishing boats come and go. The town is breezier and quieter than the inland cities, which suits couples who want a gentler pace, though the wind can be strong for those who prefer still beach days. Morocco Luxury Holidays can be arranged with a seafront hotel here.
• Oualidia lagoon: Oualidia is a small lagoon town on the Atlantic coast near El Jadida, known for its oysters and calm, sheltered waters. It is a quiet seafood stop that few package holidays include, which gives couples a more private coastal experience. The trade-off is limited accommodation choice, so we recommend booking early and pairing it with a larger coastal base nearby.
• Marina Smir sailing: Marina Smir is a Mediterranean marina on Morocco's northern coast, offering yacht berths and nearby beaches. It suits couples who enjoy sailing, boat trips and an unhurried waterside lunch. The trade-off is that it is a more practical base than a resort, so we advise pairing it with a day exploring the historic medina just inland along the coast.
• Agadir sunsets: Agadir is a modern Atlantic beach resort with a long sandy bay and a promenade lined with cafes, and it is the main package-holiday resort on the coast. Couples can enjoy reliable sunshine, sunset walks and beachside dinners without long journeys. The resort is less atmospheric than the old towns, so we would suggest a boutique hotel away from the main promenade for a more intimate stay. Morocco All Inclusive Holidays are a practical option for a restful beach break here.
• Casablanca waterfront: Casablanca is Morocco's largest port and main commercial city, and its Atlantic waterfront offers modern hotels, seafood restaurants and the striking Hassan II Mosque. It suits couples who want a more urban coastal stay with excellent dining and easy onward train links. The city is busier and less traditional than the imperial cities, so it works best as a short stay before or after a quieter destination.
