Safi

A historic Atlantic port in Morocco, famous for its pottery, Portuguese fortresses and ocean views.

Destination story

A place with its own rhythm.

Safi is one of Morocco's oldest ports, set on the Atlantic coast between Casablanca and Essaouira. The Portuguese sea fortress Ksar el Bahr and the old medina walls recall a rich history, while the Potters' Hill keeps alive one of the country's most celebrated ceramic traditions. Waves along the coast also make it a well-known surfing spot. Safi offers groups an authentic, welcoming Moroccan experience away from the busiest tourist routes.
