Why Visit Tangier?

Discover Tangier – Where Africa Meets Europe

Tangier is one of Morocco's most fascinating cities — a cosmopolitan port where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Mediterranean Sea, and Africa faces Europe across just 14km of water. Once a legendary haunt of writers, artists and diplomats, Tangier today is a dynamic city with a beautifully restored medina, stunning coastal scenery and easy access to Spain by ferry.
