Rabat – One Night, Two Days. Much development going on, the area between Salé (near the medina) and Rabat is getting a tunnel underneath it as well as a new marina. Should be quite the spot when completed.
A good spot for check out was near the 111KM marker along route A1 going from Tangier to Rabat.
Ketrina - One Night. Fishing is very popular, Spear fishing for Large Mouth (Large Head) Sea Bass along the sunken ship while the tide is out, long pole fishing of the Jetty / Peir. Surfing is also another popular activity as the beaches are quite the local hangout.
Formerly known as Port Lyautey located on the Sebou River.

Casablanca – A few nights. Big city…the beach clubs in the Corniche area seem quite nice and popular, a new mall being developed on the water just up from the Corniche area. Another of interest that is more on the neglected side is the area near the train station that comes from the airport. A lot of rundown buildings that look ripe for transition.
Marrakech – A few days. Not that big of a fan of Marrakech, much to see in Morocco and Marrakech does not offer that much. Did enter the Satellite Poker Tournament held at the Casino de Marrakech, Hotel Es Saadi (www.casinodemarrakech.com).
Tangier – Gateway to Europe. Liked the overnight train to
Chefchaouen – Rif Mountains, not good fishing, stayed at a place called the Boston Hotel, a good place for tajine or tagine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangine) is up from the main circle near the butcher shop.
Logistics and misc.
Train schedules and routes are online – take food and drink on the train with you. (www.oncf.ma)
Bus routes are serviced by many companies and are fairly reliable. Getting around is fairly easy comparatively.
