Asilah, sometimes called the pearl of Morocco is a small port city located on the Atlantic coast, about fifty kilometers south of Tangier.
Asilah is not yet invaded by tourism and yet when we visit the city, we feel the tourist potential of Asilah: authenticity, beautiful beaches nearby, a beautiful and artistic medina, ramparts on the ocean ... mixture of Essaouira, Cyclades or Andalusia, the charm of Asilah is indisputable! It is a real pleasure to be lost in the alleys of the medina to visit Asilah.
Let's focus on Asilah, who was the favorite of my last trip to Morocco. I spoke about it recently in my travel diary in Morocco, from Fez to Asilah.
The medina of Asilah is located at the edge of the ocean. From the top of the ramparts of the medina, we can see the ocean and the waves crashing at the foot of the ramparts of Asilah.
The medina of Asilah gathers several interesting monuments. On some of the monuments of Asilah, we can see the Portuguese style that reminds us that Asilah was conquered by the Portuguese in the 15th century.
