Latest reviews on Tangier-Tetouan-Al Hoceima's beaches

Plage Jnanich
9 Aymane Ajana

Of all the beaches that I've visited in Morocco, Spain, and France, This one is absolutely in the top 10. The warm water is crystal clear and packed with sealife, especially in the wild hidden beaches near Plage Jnanich. Because of the abundant amount of all kinds of fish, it's an ideal place to dive and go fishing. It's not crowded, rarely bad weather, very calm atmosphere, great people... One thing I have to say is that the pebble mixed with sand can get very hot, so be prepared to wear something; There is also a lack of restaurants, hotels, transport, and shops. However, the quality of the water and wildlife makes it all worth it. It's a great stargazing spot, around 0h-3h is the peak One last thing is the people, never have I experienced such calm, respectful, and honest people. They were kind and very generous. One day, the villagers caught a lot of fish and gave us FREE sardines.

Plage Martil

While the beach may not be breathtakingly beautiful, it still offers a pleasant experience. For those considering a visit, it is recommended to plan for September as the optimal time to come. As for the reason why, I'll leave that up to your curiosity.

Plage Thara Youssef
10 Manar Zalani

We visited the beach in October and were pleasantly surprised to find it deserted, which added to its enchanting and pristine atmosphere. Despite being a bit challenging to reach, taking approximately 20 minutes from Hoseima, the beach was absolutely worth the effort. We even indulged in some delicious barbecued sardines at an incredibly affordable price, and the owner of the place was exceptionally friendly.

Achakar Beach
8 Lila Matthews

This popular destination boasts a bustling atmosphere with plenty of camels to be seen. The beach itself is truly breathtaking, though the service can be hit or miss. Despite this, it remains a well-known and beloved spot.

Tangier Beach

Our time at the beach was tarnished by unwelcome attention from both men and women due to our choice of swimwear. The vigilant life guard had to intervene multiple times to remove individuals who were making us uncomfortable. It was a disappointing experience, to say the least.

Please note that lifeguards supervise 33 beaches in the region, but you should rely on more than just them, remember the elementary rules, as lifeguards are not on duty around the clock, even on equipped beaches!
