Tangier in North Morocco offers an interesting mix of Africa, France and Spain. Separated from Spain by just 20 miles of the Strait of Gibraltar, it’s a thriving port, but not as crowded with tourists as the rest of the country, thus providing a good escapade.

Looking out over the Atlantic ocean, Essaouira is an old Moroccan port with a laid-back character and windsurf-friendly breezes. The city’s ancient sea wall has stood the test of time against the relentless assaults of the ocean. It has a naturally sheltered harbour and has been an important North African trading post since at least the 5th century BC.
