As Morocco's economic capital and main international gateway, Casablanca is often just a transit point — but it has enough worthwhile sights for a half or full day.
Hassan II Mosque
One of the largest mosques in the world, with a minaret over 200 meters tall and a location right on the Atlantic Ocean, this is Casablanca's must-see landmark, and one of few mosques in Morocco open to non-Muslim visitors on guided tours.
The Corniche
Casablanca's seaside promenade is lined with cafés, restaurants, and beach clubs, offering a relaxed, modern contrast to the older medinas of Fes and Marrakech.
The Old Medina
Smaller and less touristy than Marrakech's or Fes's, Casablanca's medina offers an easier, less crowded souk experience.
Rick's Café
Inspired by the classic film Casablanca, this recreated café-restaurant is popular with visitors wanting a taste of old-world Hollywood glamour.
How Much Time to Spend
Most travelers spend one day or less in Casablanca, using it primarily as an arrival or departure point before heading to Marrakech, Fes, or Rabat.
Getting to Other Cities
Casablanca is well connected by train to Rabat, Fes, and Marrakech, making it a practical starting point for a wider Morocco tour.
