Morocco's alternative cities

Here at Black Tomato we know you love the Riads of Marrakech, but that you also want to explore Morocco's mountains, wild deserts and beautiful oases. Which is why we opened up our Morocco address book to give you the inside scoop on the most exclusive lesser-known destinations in Morocco outside Marrakech.

Yves saint Laurent's endless love affair with Morocco's gardens and gilded courtyards promoted blue as the definitive Moroccan colour. In the spirit of discovery and with our colour chart in hand, we headed to Northern Morocco to discover the other sides of this mysterious country: First, to the peaceful, cobalt blue city of Chefchaouen. An idyllic, tranquil alternative to Marrakech doesn't come more picturesque than Chefchaouen. Nestled beneath the Rif Mountains, its shady streets offer an exclusive insight into a calm pace of everyday life in Morocco. Stop for a glass of tea to people watch as the fragrant scent of spices lingers in the air.

Your holiday to Morocco wouldn't be complete without a visit to the coastline that inspired Jimi Hendrix's Castles in the sand'. Former hippy outpost, windswept Essaouira continues to the centre of bohemian counterculture, attracting visitors drawn to both the musical heritage and first class surfing. For somewhere more serene, our alternative recommendation for an authentic taste of the Moroccan waterside is to head to the ancient ornate port city of Rabat, for staggering old-world architecture and a cosmopolitan marina of bobbingy yachts.
