More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive as the Atlantic edges into the city—salt air and concrete, the sea pushing gently at Casablanca’s broad Corniche. The day opens on a drive across the plains from Marrakech (roughly 240 km / 150 miles each way), and by mid-morning you’re walking under the vast minaret of Hassan II Mosque, its mosaics and cantilevered silhouette cutting a modern line against the sky.
