Al Hoceima
Al Hoceima Province · Morocco
Sandy Mediterranean beaches — among them Cala Iris, Bades, Quemado, and Tala Youssef — meet the high peaks of the Rif Mountains at this Moroccan coastal city, where Mount Tidghin rises above the surrounding range. Al Hoceima carries significant historical weight as a focal point of the Republic of the Rif (1921–1926), led by Mohamed Ben Abdelkrim El Khattabi against Spanish colonial forces. Fishing remains a major economic activity, with the city's port ranking among Morocco's top five for fish production.
