  Port Map

Casablanca is Morocco's principal/largest port and city, with population over 3,36 million (metro over 2,3 million). This is also Morocco's biggest industrial center. Port Casablanca (locode MACAS) is located on the Atlantic Ocean and is one of the world's largest man-made ports. This is also the cruise port to Marrakesh/Marrakech (Morocco's 4th-largest city and Marrakesh-Safi region's capital).

Casablanca (Morocco) cruise port

Even though it has a history going back several centuries and was colonized by the Portuguese until 1755, it declined insignificantly by the mid-1880's. The renaissance came with the French protectorate under the first resident general, Lyautey. He decided to establish Casablanca as an administrative center of the new protectorate. Lyautey gave Casablanca its public parks, fountains, wide boulevards and imposing Mauresque civic buildings. Don't miss the Hassan II Mosque, gleaming, white medium high-rise 1930's architecture, many Art-Deco touches and pedestrian precincts thronged with fashion-conscious young people. From here, tourists can visit the Imperial City of Rabat, and the fantastic Marrakech is within reach.

Casablanca is the most cosmopolitan of Morocco's cities, with a palpably French mood, but reflecting the paradox at Morocco's heart - its unique fusion of modern and ancient, of Arabia, Africa and Europe. The beguiling Casablanca of Bogart and Bergman may be no more, but you'll still find endless enigmas here amid vibrant bazaars and busy boulevards.

Casablanca cruise terminal

Port of Casablanca has no dedicated cruise ship terminal facilities at the docking pier. From where the ship docks, the distance to the city center is approx 1 km (0,07 ml). The cruise pier is located in an industrial port area and walking through it isn't that appealing.
